Sunny's Picks Sunny: Ensign Dahl has just been transfered to the Intrepid, the UU's flagship. It's a sweet post, until he notices how strangely the crew are acting. The senior officers are avoided like the plague, and there's a disturbingly high mortality rate on away missions. Dahl doesn't want to die, but he doesn't want to hide either, so he and his friends set out to solve the mystery behind the Intrepid before they join the ranks of the red-shirted dead.

 

A fabulously entertaining book that had me hooked from the prologue.
