Sneak Peek from STOLEN IDENTITY IN DEEP SPACE

Mira wakes in a cargo bay with blood on her sleeve, a needle mark on her wrist… and a warning scratched into metal:

DON’T USE YOUR NAME.

Because on every station screen, her face is already famous.

A wanted poster flashes in neon light: SABLE KADE—identity thief, cartel asset, high-value bounty.

The man who finds her first is Jace Rook, a relentless bounty hunter with a scarred jaw and a reputation for finishing jobs. He should turn her in. He should take the credits and walk away.

Instead, he hesitates.

Because Mira’s fear looks real. Her eyes don’t match the crimes. And someone has clearly built this nightmare on purpose.

Now Mira and Rook are hunted through neon corridors, airless docks, and the station’s shadowy underbelly—uncovering a syndicate called The Ledger, a black market that sells “galactic passports”… and erases anyone who can’t pay.

The deeper they dig, the darker the truth gets:

Mira wasn’t framed by accident.
She was targeted because she’s a perfect match for the cartel kingpin’s missing daughter.

In deep space, identity is currency. Love is leverage.
And the only way to survive is to steal back the one thing they were never meant to have:

the truth… and her name.

About STOLEN IDENTITY IN DEEP SPACE

Mira’s first memory is pain.

Cold metal under her back. Blood on her sleeve. A puncture mark on her wrist like someone injected her with a nightmare. She doesn’t know how she got into the cargo bay, or why the air smells like disinfectant and rust.

She does know one thing:

Someone wanted her awake long enough to read the warning carved into steel:

DON’T USE YOUR NAME.

She doesn’t even know what her name is.

But the station does.

Screens flicker to life in neon glare and broadcast her face everywhere—wanted notices looping through transit tunnels and marketplace billboards. The name attached to her image hits like a threat:

Sable Kade.
Identity thief. Cartel asset. High-value bounty.

Mira doesn’t recognize it. She doesn’t recognize the crimes. And whatever was done to her memory left her with only instincts and fear.

Then Jace Rook finds her.

Rook is a bounty hunter with a reputation built on endings. He tracks. He catches. He collects. His jaw is scarred, his gaze is sharp, and his patience is nonexistent. To Rook, a wanted poster is usually simple math: face + name + credits.

He should cuff Mira, drag her to the nearest authority gate, and get paid.

But when he looks at her—really looks—something doesn’t add up.

Her terror is too clean. Her confusion is too real. And the way she flinches from her own name doesn’t look like guilt.

Someone staged this.

Someone built Mira into a target.

And in deep space, targets don’t last long.

Rook makes a decision he’ll regret if he’s wrong:

He doesn’t turn her in.

He moves.

Because the moment Mira steps into the public corridors, the hunt begins. They’re chased through neon-lit concourses, airless docks, and the station’s shadowy underbelly where everything is for sale—oxygen filters, fake IDs, weapons small enough to hide in a sleeve.

Mira learns quickly that survival is a skill.

So is trust.

Forced proximity turns into an uneasy partnership. They move together because separating is a death sentence. Rook teaches Mira how to stay unseen: where cameras can’t track, which corridors loop back into traps, what signs mean “police” and what signs mean “worse.”

But Mira isn’t just frightened—she’s observant. Patterns jump out. Names repeat. Accounts connect. And the deeper they dig, the clearer it becomes:

The station isn’t just corrupt.
It’s organized.

They uncover whispers of a syndicate called The Ledger—a black market that sells “galactic passports,” clean records, and rewritten identities. It’s not just forgery. It’s a system powerful enough to erase anyone who can’t pay, and to manufacture the perfect criminal when someone needs a scapegoat.

Mira realizes she’s been made into currency.

A name sold. A face repurposed. A body placed in the right location for the right people to find.

And the truth gets darker:

Mira wasn’t framed by accident.
She was targeted because her DNA—or her biometrics—match a missing daughter tied to a cartel kingpin.

A perfect match.
A perfect replacement.
A perfect leverage point.

Now the stakes aren’t just “clear her name.”
They’re “survive a cartel that wants what her face can buy.”

Rook keeps telling Mira not to trust anyone. Not even him.

But as the danger tightens and the conspiracy grows, Mira starts to see what’s under the morally gray armor: a man who hates systems that erase people, a hunter who recognizes a setup, and a protector who’s risking everything by staying.

In deep space, identity is currency.
Love is leverage.

And if Mira and Rook want to live, they’ll have to do the one thing the Ledger never expects:

Steal back the truth… and her name.
