The Hades is on its way across the stars, transporting condemned men to the mining planet Chronus. Prison ships only accept male crew—but Rory Finch isn't going to let that stop her. So she puts on a chest binder, cuts her hair, and disguises herself as a boy. All she needs to do is get through one journey, then she can collect a sweet paycheck and get the hell out of there. Locked down in maximum security is a prisoner like no other: Roth. With his swirls of reptilian skin, freakish size, and the twisted horns that crown his head, even the worst of the worst fear him. Guarding Roth's cell, Rory can feel his eyes on her all the time. There's no way he could know her secret... right? He's terrifying enough when he's confined. But then the engines fail, the power cuts out, and the force-fields drop. Now he's free. And he’s coming after her.

A brilliant scientist. Her captive subject. Their forbidden bond… When PhD student Selene Sinclair starts a summer internship at a military laboratory, it seems like a great opportunity. She’ll be helping the war effort—and working under the charismatic genius Dr Marcus Lockwood, famous for his innovative genetics research. But Selene soon discovers that all is not as it appears in Watergap, Oregon. Why is the lab so secretive? Whose DNA samples could be returning such abnormal results? And what’s hidden behind that locked door…? Read Selene and Weaver’s story, and escape from the subterranean cells of the Watergap laboratory, in this upcoming sequel to Mutant Mine.
