Synopsis

With the fourth stand-alone NeoG novel, Die Hard meets A Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet in this nail-biting, action-filled story that’s as much about found family as it is about survival when a peaceful transition of power in the Mars Orbital Station goes terribly wrong as rebels decide this is the moment to make their move, leaving two NeoG members stranded inside a ticking time bomb.When you’re trapped in space, there’s no way out.The mission of the Near-Earth Orbital Guard is to ensure the peace and security of the solar system. Commander Maxine Carmichael and Lieutenant Commander Saqib Vahid are at the Mars Orbital Station (MOS) to help facilitate the official handover from NeoG to Mars civilian control as part of the ongoing negotiations. Members of the extreme wings of the fight for Martian independence refuse to remain silent, and are willing to resort to violence to make their voices heard; Max and Saqib find themselves fighting for their lives. The attacks both on the MOS and the ground of Mars sets off a chain reaction that could destabilize the last few years of cautious peace.The leader of Free Mars, Sylvia Moroz, knows better than anyone how fragile harmony is, having seen for decades the Coalition of Human Nations’ inability to negotiate for peace. Without any assurances—and knowing her splintered people all too well—anything less than complete liberation will only lead to more bloodshed. She’s not opposed to fighting, but when there’s an attempt on her life, she finds she must look for help from the NeoG and Commander D’Arcy Montaglione. The pair will have to overcome their past to figure out who they can trust and how to stop the attacks on the ground before more lives are lost.Trapped inside the station, Carmichael and Vahid are scrambling to not only get to the bottom of the attackers’ motives, but also to simply survive. Because with the rest of the Zuma’s Ghost crew stuck down on Mars, it’s up to them to do what they can to keep the MOS from fully falling into the wrong hands…and keep Mars from descending into all-out war.Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

Goodreads review by Claire on January 13, 2025

On the one hand I read this over two days and I was completely invested. On the other hand, I like this series because so much is about the interpersonal goings on among this group of people who work on space ships. This book was all action from the first page — exhausting!......more

Goodreads review by Laura on November 15, 2024

Y’all we are SO back! The NeoG is back in business with a tense, well-plotted race against the clock as our familiar group gets separated and has to dismantle a highly politicized space station hijacking from within (Max) and without (everyone else but most notably Nika, D’Arcy, and Jenks with Sapph......more

Goodreads review by Lara on March 23, 2025

100% Die Hard In Space, and a hell of a read. I finished it in one day because I just could not stop reading. Does a great job of giving all the characters something to do and really showing what a group effort something as immense and tense as hostage negotiation on and around a space station would......more

Goodreads review by iam on December 01, 2024

This was... a lot. A great, high adrenaline novel for the NeoG series. Content warning include: graphic death and injury, terrorism, mass murder, trauma, hostage situation. I really enjoyed the NeoG series when I found it last year, and this new novel was no exception. While the first three books wer......more

Goodreads review by Trevin on November 13, 2024

Here we find the NeoG heroes engaged in a complicated political and terrorist situation above Mars as the orbital station/gateway to Mars is being hand......more
