Description

They say bad news comes in threes, but trouble can multiply.

With HiveZ on the way to the Crab Nebula and annihilation, Tessa Graham is finally ready to relax. After more than a thousand years fighting mankind's worst enemy, she feels like she deserves a break.

Unfortunately, fate has other plans.

Jordan Hightower is a man with responsibilities – the first of which is providing for his young sister, LouAnn. He is also a quick-thinking privateer, always looking for a profit, so when he comes across the Stalwart – a vessel carrying highly lucrative cargo – he's all in. But what he doesn't know may just kill him this time.

When Jordan accidentally releases HiveZ to wreak havoc on the remnants of humankind, Tessa is once again forced to track the monster down and destroy them once and for all. The question is, will Jordan be a help, or another hindrance?

Fans of Ursula LeGuin, Iain Banks, and John Scalzi will enjoy this exciting conclusion to the Hive Trilogy, a fast-paced thrill ride of a novel about fighting insurmountable odds against an implacable enemy.
