The conclusion to a medical crisis on Earth in a trilogy that introduces a new universe of adventures. Specialists from spaceship Chiron are working with alien scientists while furtively aiding a secret science society on the planet. However, that shortcut to solving Earth’s problem could endanger their relationship with planetary officials. Meanwhile, Chiron deals with aliens on nearby planets to gain more information and goodwill as they solve some of the neighbourhood’s problems. Armed with new information, they meet back at their new home base, but soon find their relationship with the planet’s government strained. Desperate to gain back the trust and aid of the innovative aliens, the crew of Chiron find themselves involved in interplanetary conflict as they strive to produce a vaccine to send home to Earth.
My fiction writing brings together years of science studies, work in heath care, and training and assistant teaching as a black belt in karate. After reading stacks of science fiction in my youth, I was inspired by space adventures such as Star Trek and medical thrillers by Dr. Robin Cook. Before publishing Earth and Beyond, I had articles on art and science fiction published in print and on-line magazines and served as editor for a newsletter/magazine for several years. Selling fantasy art and approved paintings and products related to the Canadian Musical Ride prepared me for doing some graphic design for fellow visual artists and for my own novel cover and ads.
In my town in New Brunswick, Canada, I run a writing group, am a literacy volunteer at school, and enjoys gardening, creative cooking, yoga, photography, kicking back to good movies and shows, and, of course, my family.
What happens in the middle of the night in a medical research lab? Nothing, you might think. Or hope. However, on a ship deep in the black of space, nothing wasn’t happening. As in, something sinister was.
Enjoy this tiny excerpt from the trilogy finale that opens a universe of further adventures.

Book Excerpt
Shoot for Earth: MedSci Missions 3
In the dark lab, hands groped an eyeball under a narrow beam of light streaming from a decorative hairband. Eyes above the hands examined Walsh’s carefully cloned organ. With a fresh cleanse of the manually applied sterile gloves, work began. Nanites that no other hands had handled were very carefully injected into the eye’s vitreous humor. After giving time for inspection, the hands slipped away, bringing all evidence with them.
