My last novella release of 2020 is out today! (There will likely be several more short stories that I have to share, so continue to watch this space for those, though.) UNJUST THEFT<\/a>, the fourth book in the Amsterdam Institute<\/em> series, completes the two-book arc of Sienna started in FAIR EXCHANGE<\/a>. Kindle and EPUB are currently available, and Kindle Unlimited will be available August 25. All four novellas will be collected in a print edition in the fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re enjoying the series, fear not! I plan another novella for 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artist Sienna thought she and her partner, Cyperus, had escaped the war between the LSF planetary alliance and the Pax Romana empire, but now a plea from their friends might draw them back in.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gentiana arrives, bringing with her the sentient AI Penstemon. They need Cyperus’s help to find Pen\u2019s daughter: a non-sentient copy of Pen made without the AI\u2019s consent and stolen by LSF. Cyperus, restless in retirement, jumps at the chance to return to intelligence work and rescue her, leaving Sienna behind. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After months of silence, Sienna receives a distress call: Cyperus has found Pen\u2019s daughter, but they\u2019re trapped deep inside LSF territory. He needs Sienna: LSF reveres the painters of its grand propaganda murals, and would easily grant her and her party travel authorization if she goes undercover as one. Can Sienna overcome her dark history with LSF to rescue both Pen’s daughter and the man she loves?<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
