Unnatural Selection

In a fractured Federation teetering on the brink of civil collapse, ex-Starfleet officer Callan Vos wanted out. But when he crosses paths with Nyra, a deadly and enigmatic Felyari operative, he finds himself pulled back into a shadow war that spans the galaxy. A synthetic pheromone engineered from the seductive powers of a long-lost Kriosian empath has been weaponized by isolationist extremists to unravel inter-species unity from the inside out.

What begins as a mission of survival becomes something far greater. From bar fights in fringe colonies to infiltration of black sites, Callan, Nyra, and the legendary android form an unlikely trio determined to expose the truth. As Federation ships turn on each other and entire worlds erupt in protest and sabotage, they discover the conspiracy runs deeper than anyone imagined reaching into the highest ranks of power.

With every step forward, Callan confronts not only enemies but his own fractured loyalties, while Nyra navigates a world that would deny her existence. Together, they'll face android deceivers, political zealots, and a weapon that turns passion into poison. The fate of inter-species unity and the soul of the Federation hangs in the balance.

But maybe, just maybe, the galaxy has a fighting chance.
