First Deployment

Science fiction and the scientists lied to us. There was no golden age of discovery. No FTL or Galactic Federations. At first contact we found out how wrong we had been about the future. Then, aliens invaded Earth and crushed our reborn hope. Sam Slate, now known as call sign Eight, is trying to fit in with the new section. He'd travelled through space to finally arrive at a small ship that carries a Marine section around the edges of human-occupied space, travelling from outpost to base to satellite making sure everything is the way it is supposed to be. No matter how hard he tries, Eight just can't fit in. His combat scores are poor and most of his interactions with the section aren't working. It's not that he isn't trying to fit in. It's that the rest of the section doesn't operate like he was trained. They all have to figure it out soon, though. An unknown force has destroyed one outpost, and while continuing their patrol, the Marines find that another larger outpost has been invaded by what appears to be the same enemy. The section has to deploy against the enemy that they can see ... but how will they deal with the enemy and sabotage that they can't? If they fail to figure out what is wrong, then they may not survive the trap laid out for them by the emperor's finest. ====================== The next book in the Corporate Marines series will be out late Spring 2017 Watch out for the spin off series coming early 2017 Stories From The CM Universe. ========================= Author's Note: I just want to say thank you for taking the time to look at my book with a special thanks to those of you who have purchased it.
