Ark Trilogy

Even the darkest secrets will come to light. Bubbly social media star Hannah Monksman is captaining Seiiki and carrying the last of Earth's whales to a new paradise planet. Viewers have been following Hannah's journey, but what they don't know is her true identity-Kim Teng who won her role as Caretaker with the help of underground operatives known as the Crusaders. Kim forms a close bond with the whales in her care, and their mental Link allows conversation on the lonely spaceship. But when one of the whales, Adonai, begins acting strange, Kim begins to suspect that she is a pawn in a secret mission meant to ensure the whales never reach their destination. Or it may just be the isolation getting to her. Short Summary: Bubbly social media star Hannah is captaining a ship carrying the last of Earth's whales to a new planet when she begins to suspect she's not alone. Once she discovers explosives on board, she realizes that she may be a pawn in a sinister plot. "A slow-building science-fiction thriller that deserves a sequel." -Kirkus Reviews "Ruth Fox's Under the Heavens updates the tale of Noah's ark, transforming it to feature whales in space and a mission gone awry." -Foreword Reviews, a Foreword Book of the Day "Fox weaves elements of religion and philosophy into a winning combination of action, romance, and science fiction centering whales in space . . . Fox's whale space opera is both action-packed and thought-provoking." -Publishers Weekly, Starred Review Hannah Monksman won the opportunity to captain Seiiki and carry the last of Earth's whales to a new planet, but the isolation of space may be getting to her when she suspects that someone else is hiding onboard.

There's a meteor headed for Earth, and there is only one way to survive. It's the final days of earth, and sixteen-year-old Char is right where she belongs: in prison. With her criminal record, she doesn't qualify for a place on an Ark, one of the five massive bioships designed to protect earth's survivors during the meteor strike that looks set to destroy the planet. Only a select few will be saved - like her mom, dad, and brother - all of whom have long since turned their backs on Char. If she ever wants to redeem herself, Char must use all the tricks of the trade to swindle her way into outer space, where she hopes to reunite with her family, regardless of whether they actually ever want to see her again, or not ...

The fight for the future of the whales has just begun. Kim Teng is committed to escorting Earth's last whales to the paradise planet of New Eden. But as Seiiki draws closer to New Eden, Kim must learn to split her role of Caretaker with another, navigate her new relationship with Wren, and deal with the suffocating guilt of having misled her crewmates for so long. With tensions rising back on Earth, it is even more important for the whales to reach New Eden quickly and safely. But as the contingent comes out of hyperspace, an unexpected computer error sends Seiiki crashing into their new home planet. Which is not the peaceful paradise they expected. When strange creatures start howling in the night and people begin disappearing from their basecamp, Kim and her friends soon realize that while someone didn't want them to ever arrive at New Eden, someone-or something-else wanted to make sure they did.

Isaiah is still fighting for the Remnant's independence in the Ark, and Char's only choice is to help him if she is to find her brother.
