Overview

A dead station. A live signal. A cargo run that was never supposed to matter. Rian Vale and his crew survive by taking the jobs no one else wants-blacklisted relief runs, damaged corridors, and cargo that pays just enough to keep their ship flying one disaster longer. When a desperate medical delivery drops them into a quarantined system, the payment isn't credits. It's coordinates. The target: an Ordinate plague-research station officially listed as dead. The problem: it isn't empty. Inside the broken station are sealed archives, drag marks leading deeper into the dark, and evidence that the Triarchy buried more than an outbreak. What begins as a salvage opportunity turns into a race to uncover the truth before an empire, a rival power, and the station itself close in around them. With a damaged freighter, a crew held together by timing more than trust, and a mystery that reaches far beyond one abandoned facility, Rian must decide what's worth carrying-and what should have stayed lost. Dead Cargo is the first book in The Starwake Saga: a sharp, high-tension space opera packed with frontier politics, found-family friction, salvage danger, ancient technology, and escalating galactic stakes. Perfect for readers who love: - gritty space opera with smart banter and real consequences - damaged ships, damaged people, and impossible odds - quarantine mysteries, buried records, and political conspiracies - crews like family-if family argued better under pressure - first-contact undertones and relic-driven long-game intrigue Start The Starwake Saga today.
