    About this ebook

    It's the election season in Beta City, a series of terraformed asteroids in between Earth's Moon and Mars, but the bigger issue on the ballot is murder. One human is murdered at Lake Carnell, an odd glow covering his body. One Tellani is murdered in his home, an odd glow covering his body. Detectives Centar and Maccarion of the BCPD are called upon to solve these peculiar mysteries and soon discover a hideous connection between the dead. And while they are investigating these cases, someone is trying to hide a larger truth. The 87th Precinct of Ed McBain receives a 22nd century makeover, melding with political drama, scifi and the supernatural.
