Description

Stacey Moran is a distressed veteran with a deeply-hidden secret. In his new job as detective, Moran comes face to face with something evil that he thought had been conquered after the war. He follows the trail, confronting worlds that he has never experienced before. Among them are the Travelers, an enlightened subculture living on the outside of normal society's boundaries; and the Orbitals, pioneers and rebels who have made their homes off the Earth with a whole different set of rules. A strange substance called Honey threatens to derail the Unified World and Moran has to get to the bottom of it. He takes a journey through dark layers of corruption and mystery, from the highest pinnacle of New York City, through the forgotten ruins underneath to the reclusive and defiant provinces of space. His secret pulls him into a life-changing search for personal redemption.
