tomorrows book

On the frontier planet of Aruta, now under lockdown by a distant alien regime known as the Stuzak, survival comes at a price. Walton, a cyborg gun for hire, takes a contract to investigate a series of disappearances in the isolated town of Faircross. The victims are found drained of all bodily fluids, and fearful locals whisper about a ghost haunting the mines. As his investigation pulls him deeper into the harsh frontier—and into the interests of powerful corporations and the occupying Stuzak authorities—he begins to uncover a truth far more unsettling than superstition. Caught between the desperate townsfolk and the forces that control Aruta’s resources, Walton must decide what his conscience is worth—and whether survival in this new frontier demands more than just a steady aim.
