Edited in August, Discovery, the first in the Mars Frontier Series is full of intrigue.
Mars! Mankind’s next step in space exploration and colonization. Landing is the easy part. Survival? Well that’s another matter.
Mission specialist Georgia Pyke came to Mars with grand ideas to establish a legacy. Instead, she must face her personal demons and rely on Captain Winter to survive from one day to the next. Has she condemned herself to a lingering death on Mars?
As if inhospitable Mars isn’t a sufficient adversary for the astronauts, one of their own has been holding a grudge for six years. How far is that person prepared to go to exact their revenge?
The mission quickly becomes a matter of life and death for the twelve astronauts. As they struggle to establish a foothold on Mars, something is lurking out of sight. Something that will change them forever.
Discovery is the first book in the highly anticipated sci-fi human colonization series, Mars Frontier. If you like The Expanse or The Martian Chronicles, then you’ll love Paul Rix’s brand new human adventure to Mars.

Now with her son, Noah, and an unexpected extra guest in tow she’s arrived in Dublin for her second Christmas. It’s not just her family Roisin’s looking forward to seeing though. She hasn’t been able to stop thinking about Shay, the man she met on her last visit home.
But the timing was wrong. It still is and she’s not sure he’s someone she should let get close. Everybody deserves a second chance at love though, or so her mammy says, but will Roisin miss out on hers?

The body of Linda Smith is brought out of the canal and she’s identified as being a police officer.
There’s only one problem; Linda Smith died three months ago.
Why does the victim have Linda’s warrant card on her?
DCI Harry McNeil and his Major Investigations Team are given the task of finding her killer, but the victim had much more to hide. Was she targeted or just in the wrong place at the wrong time?
Another victim is killed in the same way. She too has a warrant card on her, and just like the first victim, she isn’t a police officer.
Harry McNeil finds the link between the two women, but by then, he’s already crossed over the line between what’s real and what’s not. And sometimes, there’s no going back…

I love the series and can't wait for book four!
A quick but emotional read - reading about the cruelty to the dog was heartbreaking but this was a lovely tale of the love and healing that animals can bring to our lives.
I would have given five stars but for the missed typos - a few t...
I get the impression that this could be a nice story but I've had to give up after forcing myself to go as far as 15% of the way through. If this novel has ever been near a remotely professional editor then the author was conned.

Another very enjoyable story but with a few niggles, hence the four stars rather than five. Maybe it's because I was tired but the editing issues grated on me more than in the first story and, do people really generally believe that 'ear...
