The Last Term at Ares Academy
A Far-Future War Mystery

About this book:

Two billion miles from Earth, the elite cadets of Ares Academy train for a war that ended six months ago. They just don't know it yet.

When Commander Vane is found dead in his locked quarters—throat cut with surgical precision, a single word written in his own blood—Cadet Caleb Vance discovers the academy's true purpose isn't training officers. It's manufacturing something far more valuable. And the buyers have just arrived in a black ship that doesn't exist on any registry.

Trapped on a station where the instructors are hunters, the curriculum is a lie, and the enemy is already inside the wire, Caleb must solve a murder that unravels a conspiracy spanning the solar system—before Project Chimera claims its final test subjects.
