It’s 1980 on Florida’s Gulf coast. Sun, drugs, gambling debts, and dirty deals push Navy-prison parolee Scotland Ross deeper into the life of crime he never wanted. His sister’s life, a potential newfound love, and his own freedom are all on the line as he tangles with a redneck gangster intent on becoming the state’s next governor. Will Scotland make the right choice or the one that keeps him alive? Beachhead is dark noir set in the state of sunshine. A story of crime and loyalty, love and hate, and choices made when everything you care about is on the line.

In 1917, Fort Ord was established in the tiny subdivision of Seaside, California. Over the course of the 20th century, it held great national and military importance—a major launching point for World War II operations, the first base in the military to undergo complete integration, the West Coast's most important training base for draftees in the Vietnam War, a site of important civil rights movements—until its closure in the 1990s. Alongside it, the city of Seaside took form. Racial Beachhead offers the story of this city, shaped over the decades by military policies of racial integration in the context of the ideals of the American civil rights movement. Middle class blacks, together with other military families—black, white, Hispanic, and Asian—created a local politics of inclusion that continues to serve as a reminder that integration can work to change ideas about race. Though Seaside's relationship with the military makes it unique, at the same time the story of Seaside is part and parcel of the story of 20th century American town life. Its story contributes to the growing history of cities of color—those minority-majority places that are increasingly the face of urban America.

Jantine is a Beta, a genetically-modified super-soldier designed to establish and defend a hidden colony on Earth. But the Alphas back home in the Outer Colonies never thought she'd arrive in the middle of a civil war, where her strongest ally is the most wanted woman in the Home System, hunted by a genocidal madman who also kidnapped the colonists under Jantine's protection.Alone, outnumbered, and desperately short on supplies, Jantine and her ragtag group of mods arrive at the one place no-one expects them-the home of Dr. Mordecai Harrison, Earth's greatest statesman and the one person on the planet who's actually happy to see them.With the help of his friends, she plans the most improbable rescue of all: break into the Fleet's highest security research facility, find her people, and take her revenge on the rogue officers who stole them.As suicide missions go, this one could use a little more action.
