Trap Line

An engineer's groundbreaking solo mission is rudely interrupted when he stumbles into an interstellar trap.

En route to far-off stars, Toby's consciousness has a crucial mission: inhabit his clone long enough to repair a spaceship, then zip back to Earth. He's done it a million times, more or less. OK, twelve times. It should only take a few hours.

Until he wakes up in jail. And he's not alone.

His fellow prisoners: a cadre of alien soldiers. His prison: an ethereal boundary that will imprison their spirits until their bodies die. His jailers can't even see him. But their pet cat (er, iguana cat?) can—and it's got a serious case of the zoomies.

With humanity's place in the odd and ever-widening universe riding on Toby's choices, it's time to saddle up for a ghostly game of cat and mouse.
