Hakan Veil is back, and he's pissed off. He's an Overrider by trade
- gene-tweaked to cryo-sleep shipboard across interplanetary space,
but wake up running hot and save the day if ever things go wrong:
take out the pirate assault team before they can board, put down
the mutiny before it can take hold, save the ship from whatever
ails it - meteor strike, hull breach, crew crisis, reactor failure,
fuel or atmosphere leak - and bring the cargo safely home.
Fast-thinking, no need for sleep, running on stored energy that
lets him work hard and fast until the situation is resolved, he's
the ultimate First Responder, hardwired to fix the problem,
whatever and wherever it is. At the other end of the cycle -
getting ready to hibernate for a solid few months - it's a
different story. Slower, eating more, not quite so crisp. Because
by then the emergency is supposed to be over. Exiled by his
employers to Mars for failing to execute a captive, Veil found
himself thrust into the violent chaos arising from the Earth
Oversight audit. He took out the powerful and corrupt with extreme
prejudice, uncovered a major political conspiracy, defeated a cell
of hardened undercover spec ops provocateurs. In the end, he
brought a rough and ready kind of stability to the faction-riven
Red Planet. You could say he's owed some much needed downtime. Only
now there's a new f*cking emergency. And it's only just getting up
to speed. The son of a Martian corporate aristo has gone missing
under mysterious circumstances; a charismatic tech-messiah believed
long dead appears to be back in business at the head of his cult;
and high above the Martian surface, military grade orbital
platforms are falling out of the sky like storm-struck birds. Once
again, Hakan Veil finds himself in the midst of rising chaos, and
once again it looks like he's the only one equipped to deal with
the crisis. And he's in no mood for any of it.
