Overview

Being a secret agent is hard when you’re terrible at secrets and prone to distraction. Jas’s first mission is simple: land on Earth and impersonate a local named Travis Lock to gather intel on Travis’s mysterious aunt Evelyn. Within hours, he’s crashed his mother’s runabout into the ocean, transformed into a talking pug, witnessed a murder, and accidentally caught feelings for the very guy he’s supposed to manipulate. Travis is having the week from hell. Someone’s been killed and the police think he did it, plus there’s a telepathic dog claiming to be an alien who knows that Travis’s supposedly dead mother is actually alive—and in danger. Oh, and the dog wants to be besties. But that’s just the beginning, as Jas learns the true nature of the organization he was raised to serve—SKYN is harvesting human bodies and repurposing them for profit. When SKYN’s internal power struggle spills onto Earth, Jas and Travis become pawns in a war between executives who will burn entire planets to protect their secrets. Forced together by circumstance and betrayal, the pair (Jas is a boy again—don’t panic) form an unlikely friendship that quickly becomes something more. Together, they uncover the truth about Evelyn Lock’s abduction—one that will reshape everything they thought they knew about family, trust, and what can be achieved with a wedge of cheese. Because some bonds transcend origins. Some romances rewrite destiny. And some secrets are worth crossing galaxies to unveil. An intergalactic joyride that is hilarious, exhilarating, and utterly unpredictable, SPACED is a genre-bending space opera about found family, terrible decisions, and unlikely romance.

Reviews

Goodreads Reviews ""This was a delightfully funny read that genuinely made me laugh out loud multiple times."" ""A polished and imaginative piece of work that clearly knows its audience"" ""It has a similar offbeat charm to the TV show Resident Alien. The tone is fun, funny, and often irreverent."" ""this book gives vibes of Douglas Adams and the Hitchhikers series. Bloody hilarious at points, made me laugh out loud."" ""this was a delightful, fun read! had me laughing from the beginning""

Author Information

In school they thought I was slow. Turns out I was just dyslexic. In 2010 I published my first novel. Looking back at it now, it was cringe. I don’t know how it found a publisher, but you will never hear me mention it again. It is dead to me. But I got better. When I moved to New Zealand, I didn’t join a writing group - I created one. The Northshore Writers Group has since gone on to produce some award-winning authors, three-book publishing deals, interest from Disney and endorsements by Rick Riordan. Listed on this site you will find our anthologies showcasing the groups incredible talent. My own work is an eclectic collection of psychopathic thrillers, voodoo doll mysteries and self-help. My sci-fi ""Spaced"" was released on the 10th April 2026, and was the most fun to write because the characters are quirky and have a mind of their own.
