The Caine Riordan Series
Untangling the overlapping mysteries of covert national agendas, corporate exploitation, and hidden alien races would be a tough job for the most accomplished diplomat, soldier, or spy—and Caine is none of those. Worse yet, with his memories muddled by a decade of cold sleep, Caine’s relationships and love life have become so uncertain and complicated that it is putting both his mission and life at risk.
Luckily, in addition to being a quick-witted defense analyst, he’s a genuine polymath. So while he makes plenty of mistakes, he rarely makes the same one twice.
But he also has an Achilles heel: he won’t lie, not even when dealing with duplicitous politicians and CEOs. And he won’t turn his back on the oaths he’s taken or the loved ones he must protect, even as he is sucked deeper into a high-stakes and high-lethality world of intrigue, double-crosses, and mind-expanding discovery.
Still, Riordan’s integrity begins to attract reliable friends and partners as he hones his instinct for intrigue and homes in on the answer to the most crucial question of all:
If humanity isn’t alone in the cosmos, will it survive first contact?
“The charm of Caine’s harrowing adventure lies in Gannon’s attention to detail. …The dozens of key characters, multiple theaters of operations, and various alien cultures (are) enhanced by the promise of more excitement to come in this fascinating universe.”—Publishers Weekly Starred Review
