Lights Over the Senturion Moon
Private detective Vincent R. Sturgis stumbles onto his second encounter with the Black Death — a lethal street drug carving through his home planet Ceph. Suddenly, everyone wants a piece of him. The mob offers cash or a body bag. His former police
contacts won’t stop calling. The walls are closing in, and staying neutral is no longer on the menu.
With hitmen and badge-flashers circling, a mysterious client materializes with an offer: travel to Senturion, a forgotten backwater planet, and investigate a diplomat’s so-called suicide. It smells wrong. But Ceph smells worse. Sturgis takes the
ticket — not for the truth, but for the exit.
Senturion is no vacation. The diplomat’s death is a thread that unravels into something far more dangerous than anything Sturgis left behind. The deeper he digs, the clearer it becomes — he wasn’t hired to solve a case. He was lured into one.
