Titan (Old Ironsides Book 2)

"Centuries after three quarters of the human population on earth fell victim to a savage plague, a new enemy rises to threaten the existence of humanity. A civilization divided by those still fully human, those part machine and those who are both dead and alive at the same time, what it means to be truly human has already been long forgotten.

Surviving in a world four hundred years in the future that is as strange as it is dangerous, Detective Nathan Ironside is assigned the appeal case of a former prison officer incarcerated for homicide in a hellish prison in orbit around Saturn called Tethys Gaol. In an attempt to hide his own sorrows Nathan digs deep into the officerâ€™s desperate claims of innocence, and swiftly finds himself embroiled in a major conspiracy. But even trapped aboard a lawless prison ship he faces only half the danger of his partner Lieutenant Foxx, aboard the fleetâ€™s flagship Titan; for mankind has made â€œfirst contactâ€ with an alien species, and itâ€™s nothing like anybody expected.

Trapped aboard the gaol, Nathan must survive the most violent prison riot in humanityâ€™s history and solve the case while hoping that Lieutenant Foxx and the fleet can evade a ruthless killing machine and finally come to his rescueâ€¦"
