When humanity's greatest defense is destroyed, the truth may be more dangerous than the enemy.
The Solar Fleet was humanity's shield against the unknown-a powerful military force standing between the Republic and the dangers lurking beyond explored space. Then, without warning, the entire fleet is wiped out in a devastating attack.
Captain Duff refuses to accept the official explanation. Defying orders, he ventures into the depths of the Fringe in search of answers, accompanied by Captain Rogers and the crews of the USRS Victory and USRS Remus. What begins as an investigation into the destruction of the Solar Fleet soon becomes a fight for survival.
Far from the protection of the Republic, the crews encounter enemies lurking in the shadows, unexpected allies, and evidence that the attack may have been part of something far larger. As their journey takes them deeper into unexplored space, trust becomes a dangerous commodity. Friendships are forged under fire, alliances are tested, and romance emerges amid the uncertainty of a crew fighting to stay alive.
But the greatest threat may not be waiting somewhere beyond the stars.
A conspiracy reaches into the highest levels of the Republic, and the deeper Duff and Rogers dig, the more they begin to question everything they have been told. Someone has gone to extraordinary lengths to hide the truth-and those responsible may not be finished.
Hunted, outnumbered, and cut off from everything they once knew, Duff and Rogers must decide how far they are willing to go to expose the conspiracy before it consumes them.
Because the real question isn't simply who destroyed the Solar Fleet.
It's who's next.
Betrayal in the Fringe is a science-fiction space opera combining military science fiction, political intrigue, explosive space combat, mystery, suspense, friendship, and romance. It is a story of loyalty and betrayal set against the vast and dangerous backdrop of the unknown.
