Washington ‘s Station Siege

The sterile hum of Washington Station is shattered by a crimson alert. A sleek, obsidian vessel has sliced through the station's outer defenses with surgical precision. The Kryll have arrived, and they aren't looking for conquest-they are hunting a specific genetic key. Kellan Brooks, the station's weary Chief of Security, finds himself outgunned and outmaneuvered by a technologically superior foe. Led by the cold Commander Xylar, the invaders demand the surrender of Dr. Aris Thorne, a geneticist whose classified research on Project Chimera holds the power to rewrite the fabric of life. As Kellan leads a ragtag team through crumbling maintenance tunnels, he discovers the threat isn't just outside the hull. A high-level human mole has compromised the network, and the Earth Defense Force is prepared to incinerate the station to keep Thorne's data from falling into alien hands. Trapped between alien hunters and human zealots, Kellan must navigate a labyrinth of biomechanical traps and moral dilemmas. When the truth behind the human-cloning experiments comes to light, Kellan must decide: Is saving one man worth the survival of the interstellar alliance? In this pulse-pounding military sci-fi thriller, the cost of salvation may be higher than the galaxy can afford.
