The Testament of James Harper - Paperback

by S. M. Dennison (Author)

Every day across the galaxy, thousands of ships leave the bright islands of the Milky Way's inhabited systems to travel the vast sea of darkness between alien suns. Many will never reach their destinations. In age of quantum communications and interstellar commerce, companies, families, and governments all know that for every case, there is a logical explanation. James Harper makes a living investigating spacewrecks, and he knows something else: some cases don't have good answers. Some things can't be explained. He knows it, because he's lived it. Now, James is determined to find out the truth behind the strange disappearances--and his own past. So when the Hwong-Howell Corporation offers James a contract to find a missing cosmohauler named Alea, he takes the job. But James is about to learn that the truth comes at a price, and there are some things he's better off not knowing. . .
