Stingray: You Can't Hide Forever: Stingray, #1

By Gary Zeiger

A decade worth of research and development went into the creation of a new prototype warship. New propulsion system twice an order of magnitude faster than current hyperdrives. New weapons, capable of leveling a planet. New shielding, able to withstand barrage after barrage. Her name: Stingray. And she was gone, in a blink of an eye.

Five years prior, the governments of planet after planet voted in favor of being governed by a dozen of the universe's most powerful corporations. The self-governing Planetary Alliance silently fell, replaced by The Conglomerate. They wanted change. One planet stood alone: Earth had seen her fair share of change and wanted no part of it.

Capt. Reginald Epsilon saw the writing on the wall. Refusing to recognize his new commanders and facing court martial and prison, he disappeared without a trace. When Stingray went missing, an all out manhunt for Epsilon was on. Stopping at nothing, Admiral Roth ruthlessly used Epsilon's XO and protégé, the stunning Lt. Jessie Smythe, and her little sister Maggie as pawns. Can he save Maggie and prevent the most powerful warship in the universe from falling into corrupt hands, hands hell bent on destroying Earth?

Gary Zeiger

GARY ZEIGER grew up in Delmar, NY and was hooked on science fiction after watching Star Trek (the original series) at the age of 6. As a youngster and not realizing Star Trek had just started syndication, he took up a letter writing campaign to the network, studio, local TV station, and anyone who would listen, pleading with them not to cancel Star Trek! His love for classic sci-fi inspired him to pursue technology as a career, graduating with a BS degree in computer science from Rochester Institute of Technology. Gary has been in the technology field for over 20 years and still loves the classic sci-fi story. He resides in Jacksonville, FL with his wife Tonya and dogs Napoleon and Apache. Sadly, the tank full of unnamed fish have gone to the great fishbowl in the sky.
