The world is burning. His own command has betrayed him. Can Marcus survive long enough to uncover the truth?
Petty Officer Tahir Marcus expected a routine assignment. Instead, he's trapped on Varissi — a planet collapsing under civil war, corruption, and betrayal. With Alliance command in ruins and insurgents hunting survivors, Marcus discovers that the greatest threat may come from inside his own ranks.
Haunted by his past and armed with a secret ability he can barely control, Marcus is forced to navigate gangs, paramilitaries, and corrupt officers. Every step forward could expose him to enemies who would rather see him silenced — or dead.
Survival on Varissi means more than staying alive. It means choosing who to trust, when loyalty can kill, and how far he'll go before becoming the very thing he's fighting against.
The Varissian Affair launches The Marcus Files, a military sci-fi thriller series that blends gritty survival with space opera intrigue and the harsh cost of betrayal. Fans of The Expanse, Jack Campbell's Lost Fleet, and John Scalzi's Old Man's War will find themselves at home in this tense, character-driven adventure.
