Sentenced to Prism
Humanx Commonwealth #12

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?
