About the Book

In 2144 AD, the generation ship Kap's Needle left Earth to settle a new world. It all went wrong. Now, two years into a desperate return trip, the ship's biospheres are collapsing and oxygen is nearly depleted. Life Support Manager Reva is now little more than a tax collector, deciding who gets to breathe. When Captain Horvat launches a corruption purge to cover his own failures, Reva knows she's next. To protect her son, she must do the unthinkable: trust First Officer Torres, the woman who ruined her life, and help bring down the captain no matter how many innocent lives it costs. BONUS CONTENT includes two short stories by the author: "A Lifeline of Silk" and "Callis Praedictionem."

Review :
"A future vision as dark and compelling as the spaces between the stars." -Gareth L. Powell, author of Future's Edge and Embers of War "Disgraced Return of the Kap's Needle is a space opera filled with secrets and revelations, hope and addiction, along with the grief and struggle of a mother trying to save her fractured family." -Ai Jiang, Nebula and Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Linghun "A tense and tightly-paced thriller of greed, resilience, and community action. Reva, a formally high-ranking officer aboard the Kap's Needle, on the return journey from a failed terraforming attempt, will face her darkest fears; on the other side of her own power. Come for the disaster and decay, and stay for the sliver of hope that Bernardo so skillfully holds out, if only we have the courage to overcome ourselves and take responsibility for our actions." -Eliane Boey, author of Club Contango "Treachery and grief simmer below the surface, threatening one woman's sanity and the future of her crew in this deeply personal space noir from rising star Renan Bernardo." -Jendia Gammon, Nebula and BSFA Award finalist author of Atacama and The Shadow Galaxy "Twisted schemes and shifting loyalties abound in Disgraced Return of The Kap's Needle, and as with its morally gray characters, much more lies beneath the surface. Bernardo's timely tale is an affecting and thought-provoking science fictional allegory about the current state of humanity itself, and how dire straits lead us to extremes of both cruelty and compassion." -Victor Manibo, author of The Sleepless and Escape Velocity
