TMV (Jim Able: Offworld Book 3)
by Ed Charlton
Each First Contact is tricky; there's a lot of money at stake
In pursuit of a mysterious traveler called Sopha, Jim Able has inadvertently made first contact on TMV-II, shocked a world, stirred up religious and political troubles, and failed to find the information he needed.
On his return to Earth, he hears that Sopha is gearing up for murder. But whose?
Even if he must confront Sopha again to undo the damage done, Jim must return to TMV-II.
Tella, an alien agent, is assigned to assist Jim. Does this mean Jim will soon be out of a job?
TMV is the third episode of Jim Able: Offworld - short reads of 10 to 15K words. This sometimes humorous, sometimes deep adventure spans four episodes starting with ABLE.
