Secrets of Rahjen

Secrets of Rahjen hurls a mixed cast of humans and aliens into a web of politics, intrigue and murder. When a predatory star nation lays siege to powerless Rahjen-the last seat of the ancient, fallen Galactic Empire-Mark Bricchetti, Dr. Tanella Jennings, and a team of 21st century humans is swept up in a desperate gambit to save galactic civilization and protect their home world, Earth.
