Publisher Description

Sea of Lies: A Science Fiction Drama 

Five hundred years from today, the planet Gliese is humanity's last bastion, but its utopian facade hides a sinister truth. Bard Lao, a poet struggling against the Soul AI's control of his work, uncovers a set of manipulations that threatens to unravel everything. Presidium's eugenic society, governed by the Soul, is sending Lao, his botanist husband Stephron, and a reluctant crew on a perilous mission to savage Earth aboard the Free Sky—a ship powered by a magnon-driven FTL Vault drive that risks hallucinations or annihilation. As Lao digs deeper, he discovers the mission is a pretext for colonialism with devastating invasion tactics, supported by propaganda. An asteroid strike traps Lao and assistant Tay, forcing them to confront the lies, while Stephron's betrayal shatters their love. With time running out, can Lao expose the truth before Earth falls?

Sea of Lies is a gripping sci-fi thriller-drama blending interstellar adventure, ethical dilemmas, and heart-wrenching drama. Perfect for fans of "The Expanse" and "Dune", this tale of love, deceit, and survival under crimson skies and in deep space will keep you on the edge of your seat. Grab your copy today and uncover the secrets of Gliese!

About Peri Dwyer Worrell

Peri Dwyer Worrell grew up the daughter of poor performing artists on a predominantly Puerto Rican street in Manhattan in the 1970s. From this, she gained a keen appreciation of the value of diversity, tolerance, and taking no crap from anyone. She dabbled in poetry and copy editing in her teens and early twenties, but her love of math and science and her ability to make people feel better by putting her hands on them led her, instead, into the profession of chiropractic, which she practiced for twenty-eight years in North Florida, where she reconnected with her Southern roots. When her wrists disintegrated, rendering her unable to practice chiropractic, she took that as a sign that she should return to her first love: the written word.
Besides short stories and novels available here, she writes poetry blogs about her travels copy edits scientific research articles on a freelance basis, and watches a lot of sunsets.
She is married and has four grown children.
