Earth Intelligence and Space Installation Security each think Drew Townsend is working for them. They're wrong. Sent undercover to set up a covert intelligence operation on Earth's remotest space station, Drew Townsend finds himself managing a crew of brilliant mavericks, making friends with the most feared warriors in the galaxy, and feeling more at home in the controlled insanity of Daisy Hub than he ever did on Earth. Then he learns the truth about his mission there, and it's time to choose. In the coming interplanetary conflict, which side will Daisy Hub be on? Like the clues of a cryptic crossword, each book set in the Sic Transit Terra universe contains a puzzle - perhaps a riddle, perhaps a maze or an anagram - and in each case, the answer to the smaller puzzle brings the reader and characters one step closer to solving a much larger and more important one. The Genius Asylum is '1 Across' - it initiates a multi-book story arc that addresses one of the great mysteries of life: Why are we humans the way that we are?
