I did enjoy this story. Set in a near future where things are worse than they are now and you need money to get anywhere. Shane Laughlin is an ex-naval SEAL, dishonourably discharged and looking to do something, preferably honest. He's offered a chance to take part in a project and finds himself caught up in some very complicated politics and learning more about himself and human potential.

There were moments where it didn't work as well or flow as well as it could but this is the author's first SF/Near future fiction. It's not bad and I'm looking forward to more in this series. I also loved the romance between two of the male characters.
