<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The risk assessment agent Luray is sent to a colony founded by the United Earth Military on a resource rich planet. Her job is to confirm (or maybe disprove, if she so choses) the low level of threat posed by an alien civilization.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>One of humanity's colonies makes contact with an alien civilization that calls itself the Aurigan Empire. The empire politely demands the United Earth Military's unconditional and immediate surrender and sends wave after wave of warships. Strangely, the Aurigan ships are technologically inferior, lack any sort of effective weaponry and are easily shot down - or so the UEM claims.</p><p>When the colony's investors start getting nervous, acclaimed risk assessment agent Luray Ulyssa Cayenne is sent to determine what is going on and whether the Aurigans truly pose a threat. What she finds is well beyond her pay grade, and what she does to uncover the truth could cost not only her freedom, but her very humanity.</p><p>Enjoy a mysterious science-fiction story challenging the reader and asking difficult questions that will keep you awake at night.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>It's been a while since I've read a good science fiction novel. It's been even longer since I've consumed one that I couldn't put down. Dennis Haupt's <em>Luray</em> is the book that ended that lack, breaking into my imagination and taking it for a ride that I hadn't foreseen, earning <strong>4 out of 4 stars</strong> along the way.</p><br>
