Lancaster James and the Salient Seed of the Galaxy — Jeff McArthur

Lancaster James is scouring ancient ruins of long lost civilizations on distant planets in search of powerful relics that may unlock the greatest secrets of the galaxy. His ex-wife Mika is also on the search, but she's trying to find her second husband, who has disappeared trying to find one of these artifacts. Lancaster joins her to try to locate this man, and the priceless relic for which he was hunting. But danger awaits them around every corner as corporate spies, criminals, and mercenaries hunt for the same treasures, and sometimes for them.
