The Messier Fold

To protect your family's secrets, how many people would you murder?

Planet Earth's first maximum security jail break involving a cloaked spacecraft necessitates Edward Virr and the crew of the sentient starship Gabriel to give chase.

Emboldened by the addition of Andrew's father, a retired FBI investigator, they pursue their quarry over 250 million light years through a recently discovered galactic gateway – and find themselves fighting for survival.

Two races, at war for millennia over lust for power and greed, don't take kindly to strangers appearing in their midst and push our heroes' abilities so far, it culminates in an unspeakable tragedy. 

Meanwhile, their quarry have problems of their own…

Author Note:

For the benefit of my awesome fans across the pond, this novel is written in UK English and may include a few colloquialisms and spellings that you don't recognise. There is, understandably considering the circumstances, a bit of swearing involved. We do swear a bit in England, just put it down to eccentricity, or maybe our spirited Anglo-Saxon heritage.

Another unusual trait of the Brits, is to use humour in stressful situations. Just ask anyone who's been on active service with the British Armed Forces. It helps to keep one sane!

Now you're all prepared, I hope you enjoy the stories.

Cheers for now

Nick Adams
