At long last, humanity has moved beyond Earth and begun seeding new worlds. Colonies extend across the solar system, from Luna to Mars to Saturn's satellite Titan. Even Jupiter's moon Europa has become home to a couple thousand brave souls willing to risk their lives adapting to its frozen and deadly landscape.

"Innerspace: A Cosmic Odyssey" embarks on a visionary journey, melding thrilling adventure with profound philosophical and scientific explorations. Set against the backdrop of the near-future world of 2025, the narrative follows a cadre of exceptional minds united by their passion for space exploration, asteroid mining, and the future trajectory of humanity. The story begins with a thought-provoking prelude, contemplating the cosmic silence of Fermi's Paradox.

Charles Holborne has cemented his reputation as a respected murder trial lawyer, who is near unbeatable in the courtroom. But he is still on the radar of the notorious Kray Twins and before long he finds himself drawn into one of their darker scandals.

On the face of it, representing a widow in an accidental death case should be routine. Sergeant Maynard, a Royal Air Force policeman, died in a simple motorcycle accident. The problem is, Mrs Maynard insists her husband was murdered. Sceptical at first, Charles realises she could be right; something much more frightening is happening at the airbase.

Charles Holborne, maverick barrister, will never fit in at the bar—too working-class, too Jewish, and too dangerous—all of which makes him the perfect outsider to prosecute a murder case which will rock British justice to its foundations.

London, 1969: The Kray twins, the nemeses of Charles Holborne, barrister, are finally convicted of multiple murders and sent away for the longest prison terms ever imposed by a British court. But with London in the grip of a housing crisis and unscrupulous landlords hiking rents, there are new ruthless enforcers terrorizing destitute East Enders. When a tenant dies during a violent altercation with bailiffs, Charles is instructed to represent the businessmen charged with conspiracy to murder.

London, 1968: The psychopathic Kray twins have ruled London’s underworld for years, aided by their government connections, bent coppers, and extreme violence. Now, finally, Superintendent “Nipper” Read’s taskforce has a chance to take them down. The catch: Read needs barrister Charles Holborne to testify against them, while the Krays have evidence against him which would end his career and send him to prison. Caught in the middle, and with his pregnant partner’s life and his career at stake, this time Holborne has no choices left.

Another high-profile case forces maverick barrister Charles Holborne into the orbit of the Kray twins, the men who refuse to stay in his past and still have the power to destroy him. Will Ronnie Kray’s mental illness finally bring the Firm crashing down? And how are a disgraced Church of England priest, an ex-stripper, and a dead man connected? Charles Holborne must once again cross the most dangerous men in London in his quest for the truth.

A collection of vampire tales from some of horrors best.
