Rimes Trilogy 02: Transition of Order

Trouble doesn’t wait until you’re ready. Jack Rimes foiled the genies’ plot to steal the United States’ space fleet, but he made a powerful enemy. Now that enemy is back, and it’s looking for revenge. The global order is transitioning to a new state, and with change comes extraordinary pain. Militaries across the world are being reduced in size, with no thought about what it means to have millions of unemployed soldiers and no future prospects. At the forefront is the United States military, which has been forced to cut into operational readiness at an unprecedented rate. Worse, the military leadership still has its eyes on fighting old wars–armor, aircraft, and ocean-going vessels. But the new battleground is in space, and only Rimes understands this new paradigm. When the genies stage a coup that nearly causes the collapse of the new world order, it falls on Lieutenant Jack Rimes to lead the hunt with his Elite Response Force. Aided by the Intelligence Bureau’s own secret weapon, will Rimes’s vision and determination be enough to stop the genies from their genocidal quest, or will their plan to destroy their creators come to fruition?
