SOMETHING HAS FOUND US.

In a distant future where humanity has colonized the stars, settlements are suddenly going dark.

When deep space trackers Gunnison Creek and Uma Salvo begin to investigate, they are swiftly scapegoated and forced to go on the run.

Before long, a chilling conspiracy begins to emerge, one that threatens humanity — and all life itself.

With the help of a teenage runaway, a celebrity technologist, and a motley assortment of fellow trackers with little respect for authority, Gunn and Salvo begin to fight back.

But faced with an ancient and seemingly invincible enemy, that might not be enough.

As the walls close in, survival may lie in the one place that has been forgotten for generations.

A place called Earth.

FOR MILLIONS OF YEARS, SATURN HID AN ALIEN SECRET.
IN 2065, HUMANITY WILL FIND IT.

Lowell Carpenter is a disgraced Marine assigned to a remote US research station on Saturn’s moon Enceladus, where scientists have made an extraordinary discovery in the ocean below.

A special forces team, led by Lowell’s murderous former commanding officer, shows up to investigate. Almost immediately, everything begins to unravel.

Something beneath the surface has been activated.

Soon every space force on Earth — American, Chinese, Russian, and more — is converging on the tiny moon, ready to start a war.

But when a young archeologist with a knack for dead languages makes an amazing discovery of his own, Lowell realizes the stakes are higher than anyone could’ve imagined.

He soon has no choice but to disobey orders and fight soldiers he helped train as he races to stop an unimaginable chain reaction that threatens the entire solar system.

The countdown has begun…

Artifact, the first book in the Saturn’s Legacy series, is a sci-fi thriller full of mystery, intrigue, and epic action from the depths of the ocean to the edge of outer space.

Before they know it, they’re the ones on the run with a bounty on their heads … and the fate of humanity in their hands.
