Asha Bardon

A Star Filled Sea Asha Bardon

Monsters are real and they hide in plain sight. Living on Earth pretending to be human, linguist and translator Joshua Jordan is happy with a quiet life until his alien employer asks him to attend the top secret and much-anticipated ceremony where Earth will become a part of civilised alien society. It should have been easy, a trip off world but when Josh gets involved nothing is ever is, particularly not when a body-jumping parasite kills a member of the human ambassador's staff. No one is safe, not even Josh. Assisted by his reptilian boss and an empathic intern, there are just hours until the Tsura Medan docks on Mnemosyne and the creature vanishes into the local population. Separated from his soulmate and star systems out his comfort zone, Josh finds himself forced to walk a fine line between being human and his responsibilities as an Ashterai Elder. He's going to learn the hard way that sometimes there are worse things than a murdering monster only he can see-like having to ask your friends for help. The clock is ticking and the entire future of Earth hangs in the balance.
