Three Lives Of Mary (6 page)

She saw a movement in the window that might have been Tartoa waving to her. To her surprise she felt a grin spread across her face and she lifted her arm, returning the gesture.

Life has to be lived.

In
Dead Reckoning
, Hector discovers that life after death ain't easy when your shorts itch and your ass belongs to a whip-wielding giant. And pity poor Murphy, struggling to keep the peace between his team of geeky scientists and a gung-ho lieutenant, as they investigate a mysterious alien ship—all while dealing with his own personal case of
Murphy's Law
.

First Contact
is always complicated, especially when you have to call in cranky old relic, Casteneda, to bail you out. Fresh off the battlefield, Matt Holbrook is also grappling with a perplexing new species, but all he wants is to make it home.

Earl Duarte is in for some interesting pet therapy in
How much is that doggy?
And as for Elvis, he definitely needs some therapy. In
One for the Money
he's re-entered the building, but is kinda confused. Meanwhile, lovesick Dan wonders if Mel will ever notice him in the technology-obsessed world of
Version Control
.
