About the book
Humanx Commonwealth #12 The company had a big problem: It was illegally exploiting a fabulously rich planet named Prism, a world where even the tiniest creatures were living jewels. But somehow, all contact had been lost with the scientists of the survey team. The Company didn't want to draw attention to itself by sending in a rescue mission, so they assigned Evan Orgell, a self-confident problem solver, to investigate. He was smart. He was good. He was backed up by the Commonwealth' s best equipment. What could possibly go wrong?
