Nighthawks at the Mission
In today's universe, it's The Oberon is last place a settler from the USA can find the old American dream alive and well. Thousands of settlers from America have come to live in this mysterious land on another world accessed only by an energy portal in the South Pacific. Facing a futureless existence and betrayed by her long-time boyfriend, Sarah Orange is one of those settlers that leave the Earth. There she falls in with a group of illegal salvagers that operate at night in the empty ruins there. Sarah risks death from both The Oberon's corporate overseers as well as the murderous hatred of the alien Ni-Perchta that hate the human settlers who are pilfering their world that is filled with magic and ancient technology left behind by an extinct civilization. With her life spinning out of control from drug addiction, Sarah searches for love and money in a world so close to- and yet so different from- our very own while surviving a terrorist threat that slowly begins to consume her new homeland with destruction.
