Hey,
Monday — June 15 — Last Light in the Dark goes live. Nine books, one long fall into the deep, and this is where it starts.
Before it does, I wrote you something.
The Last Transmission is a short story set in the same world. Dr. Marisol Vega is alone on a deep-space listening post at 3:47 in the morning when a signal comes in — from a moon nobody on the station will say out loud. She’s the only one awake to hear it. She decides to listen to the whole thing.
That’s the mistake.
It’s free, it’s on the site, and it’s built to read in one sitting. If it gets under your skin, you’ll know whether the novel is for you before you spend a cent.

Last Light in the Dark is on pre-order for $2.99. It lands on your Kindle automatically Monday morning — and pre-ordering now actually helps: the first days of pre-orders are what tell Amazon to put a new series in front of readers.
Free with Kindle Unlimited once it’s live. |
While I have you — two things:
| ▸ | It’s a complete nine-book series, not an open-ended one. A new book every three weeks, June 15 through November 30. |
| ▸ | If the short story lands for you, a quick honest review on the novel after Monday is the single most useful thing you can do for it. |
One more offer, for the people who like being early:
I run a small advance-reader crew — you get the book free, before launch, in exchange for an honest review. No schedule, no obligation, leave whenever you want.

P.S. The story ends on a line I almost cut: “Once is already too much. Once will get you.” If that’s the kind of thing that makes you lean in instead of away — you’re in the right place.
