The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Victor Zacharias and his family ply the Asteroid Belt in their rattletrap ore-ship—until a military attack on the habitat Chrysalis forces him to draw fire away in a control pod. Hurled onto separate trajectories, the disabled ship with his wife and kids drifts deeper into the Belt, leaving Victor to go to desperate lengths to find them…. Years later, an aging sculptress and a guilt-ridden cyborg—once the ruthless commander who destroyed Chrysalis—are trying to outrun the mercenaries out to kill them. It has to do with the alien artifact that profoundly affected Martin Humphries—the most powerful man in the solar system—and the race to control it will enmesh them all in a high-stakes game for the future of humanity.
