Harvestman - Paperback

"A simple mission, they said," muttered Leonardo. "We shouldn't have crashed," said Baz. "Crashed? We should not be alive." His military career ruined after the Newhope disaster, Capt. Leonardo Valencia has one last run on the miserable freighter Resurgam before he can retire. Then Resurgam crashes on an icy planet after the routine archeological mission. Valencia awakens to discover all but three of the crew are dead and they're stuck on a planet that shouldn't be there. Soon Capt. Valencia discovers one archeologist survived, fleeing into the snowy wastes with illegal alien artifacts. The remaining crew are dumbfounded but short on time. Is the archeologist the Harvestman, mastermind of the Newhope disaster and leader of the Martian separatists? What's going on in the strange tunnel at the planet's southern reaches? Resurgam's crew are stranded with only days to thwart this madman's plans. If they fail, the FMR could destroy life on Earth, replacing it with something alien and horrific.
