A notorious outlaw enlists his niece’s assistance in a major heist, and she agrees to help him out — just this once. But when it turns out she’s meant to steal data from the Galactic Fleet, she’s not sure she’ll be allowed to walk away…

—

Secretly, Sloane Tarnish has always admired her outlaw of an uncle and his tales of not-so-legal adventures across the galaxy–but she never thought she’d be asked to help with one of his heists.

When Uncle Vin shows up on her med school campus with a plan to steal a chip full of Fleet intelligence–and the baffling idea to have her play a key role in the scheme–Sloane’s got her doubts. Uncle Vin doesn’t seem to realize that her top skills involve the kind of shots you drink, not the ones you fire.

But Vin’s convinced the Fleet’s got plans to install empirical rule across the free galaxy, and that this data could stop them before they can begin. When a bunch of rogue delivery drones start taking shots at her–and not the liquid kind–she has to figure he’s onto something.

To prove it, all she needs to do is steal the data key from the middle of a Fleet ball… and right out from under the Commander’s nose.

Too bad she’s got absolutely no idea what she’s doing…

Space travel is so overrated.

Bounty hunting isn’t any better, but it’s what Sloane Tarnish needs to do if she wants to fix the rundown spaceship her uncle dumped on her. So she can find him and dump it right back.

Problem A: Her uncle also ditched his motley crew–made up of a cranky ace pilot and an extraneous mad scientist–and they don’t exactly see her as the captain.

Problem B: Her ship’s too broken to leave the most dangerous system in the galaxy, where a recent power vacuum is turning the place into one orbiting cluster of fugitives, thugs, and swindlers.

When Sloane sets her sights on a bounty with a reward that will solve all her problems, the Commander of the Galactic Fleet himself shows up in pursuit of the same man. The last thing Sloane needs is to get tangled in a web of galactic politics–but she won’t let her prize go, either. The payoff is just too big to give up.But as dangers close in on all sides, she can’t help wondering if she’ll live to claim her prize…

Chaos Zone is the first installment in a new space opera series full of reckless women, messy worlds, and big adventures–perfect for fans of Guardians of the Galaxy and the Mandalorian. Order your copy of Chaos Zone now!

Sloane might not relish the situation that’s got her tangled in a web of Galactic Fleet and Trade Federation politics – but she’s knee-deep in it now. And she’s finished with dead ends.

When she finally cracks the clue her uncle left behind, it points directly to the worst spot in the galaxy: a barren wasteland of a moon (if it counts as a moon when the planet it was orbiting has been blown into bits) where her toes are guaranteed to freeze solid in about thirty seconds.

Between the bandits, the blizzards, and the cybernetic wolves, her hands are full. Not that she’s complaining… much.
Sloane only hopes she can escape the trek with all her toes intact – and the evidence she needs to save the galaxy from imperial rule.

No pressure.
