Star Cops. Nathan and his team step up their investigations into

with enquiries on Earth and in space, the Collective strikes back.

foe. 2.1 Old Flame, New Fire by Alison Winter. Earth leave in

hurt in the process. 2. The Butcher’s Wife by Lizzie Hopley.

with a princess and usurp the wealthy planet Arl – unless another

them. 3. Vengeance Games by Lizbeth Myles. Bayban is in the mood
