About this ebook

Out where the rubble of dead planets collect, a mining operation is totally destroyed. Witnessed by a crew of ‘Rock Jocks’ while harvesting a high yield field, they narrowly avoid injury due to one man’s effort to adapt to a new employment policy. Against the odds they survive, only to discover that what they saw was no accident and the people responsible know that they are alive. Taking matters into their own hands, using anything available they take on the challenge, with Hi-tech gadgets and personal exoskeletons, some innovation and outside-of-the-box thinking nothing is impossible. Add a little behind the scenes political assistance and the outcome is inevitable.
