Zero Point: The Union Chronicles - Book One

At the edge of the Planetary Union, Volya Frye, a desperate salvage operator in need of some good news, makes a curious discovery: a derelict vessel with no indication of origin and signs of foul play. What's more, the ship itself shouldn't exist, at least according to what Frye knows about interstellar travel. Before they can unravel the mystery of the ship, however, Frye and his crew find themselves caught up in a conspiracy that involves some of the most powerful people in the galaxy, and threatens to take what little Frye has left - including his life. Set in a time long after mankind has settled the galaxy, Zero Point weaves a tale of technology, intrigue, and conspiracy, while touching on the timeless themes of greed, corruption, and abuse of power, coupled with a search for freedom and justice.
