Chapter 29 of 29: Meteor Blue.

About The Surveyors (The Chosen Dark, Book 1)
They read everything. They explained nothing. Ensign Sarah Bishop finds the impossible thing on a routine night shift: a junction reply that arrived four hundred and ten milliseconds before the query that produced it.

Hard, institutional science fiction by R. S. Breed: the science is real, and so are the chains of command that decide what anyone may do about it. The whole book is free here, one chapter per episode.

That's the end of The Surveyors. The story continues in Book 2, Terminal Black:
• Audiobook on Google Play
• Ebook on Kindle (free in Kindle Unlimited)
• Free first chapters, maps and the series guide

Narrated with a digital voice.
