Captain Hawkins — H. Peter Alesso

When Jamie Hawkins saved the lives of women and children who were caught in the cross-fire of war, he fell squarely in the cross-hairs of avenging soldiers and was unfairly convicted of treason.

Sentenced to life imprisonment at hard labor in an infamous penal colony on a faraway planet, his courage won him the admiration of his fellow convicts. While he was plotting his escape, an enemy attacked the planet--giving this daring warrior his chance. Together with his fellow prisoners, he launched a bold assault and high-jacked the enemy spaceship.

From then on, Captain Jamie Hawkins and the Indefatigable fought against a corrupt government--only to discover a mysterious alien presence behind the war.
