Elfrida and her best friend take up the challenge, but the hunt turns into a nightmarish ordeal when they get lost in the subterranean caverns. And, worst of all … they’re not alone.

The Galapagos Incident

2014

The Recyclers Series opens with a nuke-sized bang in this adventure set in a near-future colonized solar system, where humans and machines are edging towards an all-too-possible showdown. The job: Evict 30,000 illegal squatters from the asteroid habitat they built. The pay-off: A share in the glory of terraforming Venus. The catch: An inhibited-AI robotic assistant with a hidden agenda. Comes the hour, comes the sucker. Elfrida Goto works for the UN. But she soon starts to suspect that her assistant is working for someone else ... who doesn’t care if Elfrida lives or dies. Bad enough that she’s surrounded by colonists who insist on clinging to their God and their guns. A new threat is about to emerge that will make her problems look like … … just another day at the office. The Galapagos Incident was first published in 2014 as a serial in Amazing Stories Magazine, and is now available as a full-length Kindle book and in paperback.

When a theft at the University of Vesta reveals a sordid plot taking shape far from Earth, Kiyoshi and Elfrida join forces to stop the looming threat to humanity's survival. Racing through space, and across the surface of the giant asteroid, they must expose the truth behind the Vesta conspiracy, before it destroys thousands of lives… starting with their own.

She's got the job from hell ... on a planet that's hotter than hell. In the year 2287, Mercury is the factory of the solar system. After her bruising experiences in the asteroid belt, Space Corps agent Elfrida Goto is looking forward to a secure job in Human Resources. But she's soon swept up in an election that could lead to the evacuation of the planet's colonists. Elfrida is torn between doing her job and supporting the colonists, who've built a vibrant underground world. When violence threatens, Elfrida turns for help to a reclusive local corporation ... that's hiding a big secret. An alliance with criminals seems like a small price to pay, but it's not enough to stop the corrupt outsiders who would steal the election. Now the price of peace will be even higher.
