Story4.5 out of 5 stars 47
Government operative David Jenkins is skilled at controlling his emotions. Feelings are lethal when your job is to infiltrate minds, erase and implant thoughts, and guard the nation's intellectual capital. But even he can't fight his strange attraction to Grace Woznisky. He'll do whatever it takes to protect her from a madman intent on possessing both their minds. Neither suspect their dangerous enemy has a larger motive, and David may be Grace's only chance for survival. All freelance artist Grace wants is steady-paying work and to see her flighty sister to the altar. But after David offers her a job, she finds herself in the middle of a mental tug of war-one that has her reeling from nightmares and fighting for her life. She must decide: Are her growing feelings for her new boss authentic, or is she a victim of his mind-altering abilities?

Publisher's summary
Desperately searching for a better life...
Despite amazing technological advancements, life in the 2050s hasn’t become any easier. Rustin struggles to find his calling amid poverty, geopolitical tensions, and a world where one must compete for even the most basic jobs against both fellow humans and AI machines. All he knows for sure is that there’s a better life out there, and he’s willing to leave home to find it.
Only, this means trusting a cryptic group of smugglers and raising more money than he’s ever owned - by any means necessary.
Arrest and fear of deportation aren’t his only concerns. A guilty conscience feels like an even greater threat. Oddly enough, Rustin’s journey eventually lands him a bizarre job on Mars, the possible future home to all humankind. He never would’ve imagined he’d end up in such a peculiar role - a scarecrow - on another planet, the very same job he’d always thought of as useless growing up on his parents’ farm.
All he has to do is survive the job for two years. Not an easy task, considering his troubled past and all the challenges a foreign planet decides to throw his way. But if Rustin can finish his term, his employer, Xsociety, has promised to fund his Brain-Link, the enhancement that will take him one step closer to the life he’s always envisioned.
Who would’ve thought that here, on a foreign planet, doing a job usually taken by a pole and a bundle of straw, Rustin would find himself and something even more valuable: a purpose.
The Martian Scarecrow is a compelling coming-of-age sci-fi audiobook, full of emotion, strife, and - most important of all - heart.
...he finds something far more unusual, and with it a purpose.

At his death in 1988, Robert A. Heinlein left a legacy that almost single-handedly defined modern science fiction. But one of Heinlein's masterpieces was never finished. In 1955, he began work on Variable Star, a powerful and passionate tale of two young lovers driven apart by pride, power, and the vastness of interstellar time and space. Now, the Heinlein estate has authorized award-winning author Spider Robinson to expand his outline into a full-length novel. And the result is vintage Heinlein.

At his death in 1988, Robert A. Heinlein left a legacy that almost single-handedly defined modern science fiction. But one of Heinlein's masterpieces was never finished. In 1955, he began work on Variable Star, a powerful and passionate tale of two young lovers driven apart by pride, power, and the vastness of interstellar time and space. Now, the Heinlein estate has authorized award-winning author Spider Robinson to expand his outline into a full-length novel. And the result is vintage Heinlein.
