Publisher's summary

Four years ago, a bomb destroyed part of the dome protecting Armstrong, the largest city on the Moon. Now, as the city celebrates its survival with an event it calls Anniversary Day, a larger threat looms - one that begins with the murder of the mayor, and spreads across the moon itself.

Even with every new technological device at her disposal, Moon Security Chief Noelle DiRicci can't stay ahead of the unfolding disaster. As the situation gets worse, Retrieval Artist Miles Flint hurries to his daughter's school to protect her. And Detective Bartholomew Nyquist finds himself in the middle of everything, from that first bombing to the Anniversary Day crisis itself.

Fan-favorite series narrator Jay Snyder is back to lend his voice to this thriller with several mysteries at its core. Anniversary Day is Kristine Kathryn Rusch's most exciting Retrieval Artist novel yet and available exclusively through Audible for the first two months of its release.

You gotta buy all 8 books or else. Be warned.

You won't find the answer to the mystery (or any answers at all) until you get to the last book, number 8. Each book is not a standalone. None of the smaller storylines are tied up at the end of each volume, like most normal series. As another review said, it really should have been a trilogy with 3 large volumes. At the so-called "end" of each novel, I felt totally un-satisfied, almost cheated.

If I'd known what I was getting into, I'd never have started. I wish I'd known this at the start. But I guess this is getting to be the fashion nowadays: to write multiple small volumes that are just one story, rather than just one long book. Some authors warn you up front, but some don't.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
