Nerve Zero A Novel of the Log of the Hand of Tyr

Justin Robinson’s engrossing noir novel of an occupied, zero gravity, artificial world. Crime, mystery, cults, secret police, assassins, betrayal and a chase through the atmosphere of a gas giant - this book has it all! Idriel Ramirez has returned home, haunted by the shame of being a conscripted pilot for the New Terran Empire. Haunted by the shame that he's felt the sky. Once respected as a nerve, now he's just pressed. Few in Hinden, clouded jewel of a fallen empire, will even look him in the eye. Drawn into crime and mystery by Ausiel Montoya, an old itch, Ramirez tells himself he's floating through Hinden's steel nest of assassins, pscyhos and cultists because of what the money she promised can buy him - years off his indenture. But as he delves deeper into the heart of his wretched homeworld he finds the secret she's carrying is as big as the secret at core of Hinden. And just as dangerous.
