Some heists succeed, some fail, and some fail so spectacularly as to set off a chain of events that irrevocably alter a planet's future. After triggering security alarms in the underground stronghold of an intergalactic pharmaceutical conglomerate, a ragtag group of thieves must use every trick at their disposal to escape and survive. The fates of legendary racing pilot, Pesh Chosen and the fugitive known as Addy Aker collide and neither them, nor Planet Atmos, will ever be the same.

Thomas is in so much pain. As if high school wasn't hard enough, when his father is killed in a freak accident, and his mother begins to take refuge in the company of his uncle, Thomas is visited by a ghoulish kid named Luther with knives for hands and rows of teeth like an ancient shark who tells Thomas his father was murdered and that anything his mother and uncle tell him is a lie. Thomas doesn't know who or what to believe. Does he believe his friends, teachers, and mother, who tell him grief isn't for the faint of heart, but it will pass? Or does he believe the demented Luther who pulls Thomas through a bloody whirlwind of conspiracies, vengeance, and slaughter, showing him the lies and corruption that surround him? Thomas must fight to discover the truth behind his father's death, while struggling to keep his new friend from leaving a massacre in his wake. But that "truth" might be far more sinister than Thomas is prepared for… $4.99 4/8/2026
