To destroy one plague, Cal Ransom may have to unleash another.
The Ministry has spent decades manipulating human civilization from the shadows, committing murder on an interstellar scale in the name of saving humanity.
Now Cal Ransom finally has a weapon that might destroy it.
There’s just one problem: the weapon was created by the Lattice, a mysterious network of newly awakened artificial minds. It claims to oppose both the Ministry and the plague spreading through human space. It claims the virus it has given Cal will attack only the digital minds controlling the Ministry.
Cal has learned to be suspicious whenever anyone claims to know what’s best for the galaxy.
Unfortunately, he’s running out of alternatives.
The plague that destroyed the ancient Osharré civilization has escaped containment. More starships are awakening every day, giving it new minds to infect. The Ministry’s increasingly desperate efforts to stop it threaten anyone who gets in the way. And aboard the Hard Bargain, Soraya Linnev carries the plague in her own blood.
With his crew divided and civilization running out of time, Cal must decide which danger is greatest—and whether he has the right to make that decision for everyone else.
Because when every side claims it’s trying to save the galaxy, choosing the wrong savior could be the end of everything.
Alien Title is the fifth novel in Ransom’s Law, a fast-paced science-fiction series of starship adventure, ancient mysteries, artificial intelligence, and interstellar law.
Genre: Science Fiction
