Static — Christina Engela

Mercury Rising, Mercury Resurgent!While on a routine deep-space mission to chart the frontier of unknown space, the starship Mercury stumbles across quite a mystery. How had the Kilgary – a cargo carrier last seen lightyears away forty years before, reached that part of space before the Mercury? Why couldn’t the cause of death of its crew be determined? What was in the deleted log entry of the Kilgary, and more importantly, why had it been deleted?The last thing Captain Stuart Flane expected while working to solve the enigma of the Kilgary, was a day-long running battle with the undead! Their troubles didn’t end there though, because the Mercury - their only ride home, was also in trouble!Of all the starships in the Terran Space Fleet, the I.S.S. Mercury is probably the unluckiest ship in history! Not once, not twice, but many times over, the same hapless crew – give or take a few dozen casualties, on a supposed voyage of deep space exploration, stumble into the weird, wake the creepy and trip over the downright terrifying and possibly even supernatural.
