Stowaway

Aeolus Investigations — serious space adventure, sprinkled with a dash of humor.

The year is 2026. When Lexi first met Ron, she was a doctoral student at a university on the west coast of the United States. She had a plan with clear goals for her life. She hoped to be on the first manned mission to Titan, although Mars would do.

Ron was a student there too, except it turned out he was already an insurance investigator. One on an undercover mission.

While it wouldn't be fair to say Lexi was knocked off her feet, she certainly felt the attraction. Ron abruptly left after their first date without much of an explanation. Bummer. What does a young woman brimming with curiosity and determination do? She followed him. Of course. Who knew he was an alien? Right? Determined to save Earth from (an imagined) invasion, what could a girl do other than stow away on his small starship?

Her plans of interplanetary space missions quickly go out the window. Joining forces with her alien boyfriend Ron, his mother Geena, and the sentient starship Urania, they recover the 50,000 year-old, alien artifact known as the Rose of Light. That’s when the fun starts, or more precisely, the havoc begins.

A lighthearted space adventure with a heavy-handed dash of humor that is first in a series. The complete series is available on Amazon. Now with a bonus short story -- Jis Boc Seckan and the Rose of Light -- included.

Join Lexi, Ron, Geena, and Urania, the Aeolus Investigations team, in Stowaway, the first of their exciting adventures.
