This story fits between Space Worms and Spaceberg in the lineup.
This fan-exclusive Space Squad 51 novella is available only through my mailing list.
A long, uneventful stretch for Orbital Rescue Services ends when communications across Orcus go dark. Elevators stall between levels. Air and water systems falter. Traffic control goes blind. Ships collide, tumble, and fall screaming through the atmosphere.
Space Squad 51 doesn’t hesitate to take on this disaster.
Before another catastrophe unfolds, Nikili Echols and her squadmate, Lucy Ashida, launch into orbit. While scrambling to divert space traffic, they discover the source of the outage. Their investigation pulls them beyond patrolled space, into territory ruled by smugglers and pirates, toward the strangest asteroid any human has ever encountered.
Sometimes, a rock is not just a rock.
Not when Nonstop Dance 3000 is involved.
