Cold Orbit is a hard, atmospheric science-fiction thriller about survival after obedience fails.
Kade Soren was trained for missions that leave no record. No witnesses. No return briefing. When a classified extraction on Mercy Station goes catastrophically wrong, he does what he was never supposed to do: he saves the asset.
The asset is a child.
What follows is not a rescue story. It is an erasure.
Cut loose in uncharted space, branded retroactively as dead, Kade and what remains of his squad realize the mission was written to fail before it ever began. Fleet command is silent. Recovery teams are lies. And the girl they pulled from the fire is not just a survivor she is a living key tied to a buried black-ops program the galaxy was never meant to remember.
As systems begin responding to her presence, locked archives awaken, and ships die without a shot fired, the truth becomes unavoidable: she was not designed to be protected. She was designed to end authorization itself.
Hunted by the institution that created them, stranded between forgotten stations and lawless fringe worlds, Kade must choose between following the rules that made him or breaking them completely knowing that survival may cost him everything that once defined him as human.
Cold Orbit is a tense, character-driven military sci-fi novel about loyalty, moral fracture, and what happens when silence becomes the most dangerous weapon in space.
Perfect for readers who enjoy dark, grounded science fiction with a psychological edge, realistic military tone, and slow-burn revelations where no one escapes clean.
