Secret of Centrix

About the Book

            Ynara Diri has been searching for her son, Skaya for five years, having lost him to a disreputable batch of gamblers called the Bollen in an impossible scenario.  Ynara has struggled within herself to conquer her own weakness to become the strength she will need to get him back.  Now, on the verge of finding him, she gains the aid of a stranger who seems eager to help her at a duplicitous cost.  The final piece she needs to get her son is an old friend who has supported her during her struggle to reunite her family.

            Danuno, the Bollen head of an illegal mining colony on a floating deserted rock, called Centrix has been searching for years to find an elusive prize to make him ultimate authority in the sector.  With the use of slaves, he has been digging away beneath the surface of Centrix in hopes that he has finally located the source of power.

            Skaya’s memories of his mother were deliberately damaged and deteriorated over the last five years as he finds himself maturing into manhood.  The Bollen that have held him captive have done everything they can to make sure that he remains a slave to their mining community, but their efforts would not be enough.  The biological modifications they made to Skaya when he was brought to Centrix would be the very undoing of the captivity to which Skaya belonged.
