Who—or what—is attacking Manhattan?As Echo struggles to recover from the Cortians’ ravages and Omega deals with severe PTSD, something invades the island of Manhattan, laying waste to Central Park before attacking the city from Hell’s Kitchen all the way to the Upper West Side. Animals die, vehicles are destroyed, skyscraper windows are blown out, and buildings are set on fire. Worse, civilians—human and alien—are missing... or dead.Can Echo and Omega even assist? Can Division One stop the Mega Moth before it levels Manhattan?  Stephanie Osborn, the award-winning Interstellar Woman of Mystery, is a 20+-year space program veteran with multiple STEM degrees.

The Cortians are back, and they want Echo.After months of “playing target,” the heads of the Alpha Line special forces department, Alpha One—Agents Echo and Omega—finally take a very special vacation on Tiniken, the “Eden planet,” for some much-needed R&R. The pair kick back, relax, and play tourist, exploring this lovely alien world together.But when they unwittingly cross paths with a Cortian slave ring and the Cortians recognize Echo as “Cortian Enemy Number One,” he becomes their next target, and “Eden” displays a seamier side. Can Omega and the rest of Alpha Line find Echo before he is sold as a slave... or worse?

It's Christmas in NYC, but for Alpha Line it's anything but a Silent Night: The Agency has a mole, leaking classified information to toy manufacturers and film producers alike, and the Agents are in danger of losing their anonymity. To complicate matters, the Prime Minister of Lambda Andromedae III, complete with entourage, has arrived to negotiate a new trade agreement with Earth. Worse, the more paranoid Division One field agents look at Omega's recent history with the Agency and suspect they have identified the mole!Simultaneously, the discovery of a grim countdown in the most incongruous place possible - the Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center - augers the threat of horrific events on Christmas Eve itself.Meanwhile, Omega is struggling to adjust to her very first Christmas in the Agency, made more difficult by the exposure of parts of her past long hidden from her conscious mind.Will Omega be able to refute the accusations, or be punished for crimes she did not commit? Will the internal conspiracy expose the Agency? Or will efforts to thwart it see Echo - and Fox - caught up in the accusations as well? What is the meaning of the countdown to Christmas Eve, and will any of Alpha Line survive it?

What if Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was right all along, and Harry Houdini really DID do his illusions, not through sleight of hand, but via noncorporeal means? More, what if he could do this because...he wasn't human?Ari Ho'd'ni, Glu'g'ik son of the Special Steward of the Royal House of Va'du'sha'¿, better known to modern humans as an alien Gray from the ninth planet of Zeta Reticuli A, fled his homeworld with the rest of his family during a time of impending global civil war. With them, they brought a unique device which, in its absence, ultimately caused the failure of the uprisings and the collapse of the imperial regime. Consequently Va'du'sha'¿ has been at peace for more than a century. What is the F'al, and why has a rebel faction sent a special agent to Earth to retrieve it?It falls to the premier team in the Pan-Galactic Law Enforcement and Immigration Administration, Division One - the Alpha One team, known to their friends as Agents Echo and Omega -- to find out...or die trying.

It's time for Alpha One to take a vacation! Traveling to The Ranch, a field station in western Texas near the famed Pecos River, the pair relax and unwind, riding horseback, picnicking, and generally having fun... ...Until they discover a team of alien assassins sneaking across the landscape and headed to Dallas, to take out the President of the United States on a campaign junket! Meanwhile, back at Headquarters and unknown to him, Echo's estranged mother-who believed him killed years before, when he entered the Agency-lies unconscious in a regeneration pod, while the medlab staff, led by Zebra, works frantically to save her life: Shortly before their vacation, Omega discovered that Nalin Bryant had developed a particularly virulent form of cancer. Can Alpha One infiltrate the assassin team without being killed? Can Alpha Line stop the assassination of the U.S. President? And can Zebra save Echo's mother's life and return her to her son, or will Echo lose one-or both-of the two women who mean the world to him?

Alpha One is participating in Omega's very first First Contact diplomatic operation. Unfortunately, it's going to split up the team-the Cortians, a race from the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy, have stringent requirements, and that narrows down the list of "candidate exchange students" to...Echo. ONLY Echo. PGLEIA's top Division One Agent, the man being groomed to be the next Director...and Omega's partner. A plum assignment, for the pick of the crop.But Omega doesn't see it that way, though she can't-or won't-explain why. She is determined to stop the mission from going forward. At any cost.Why is Omega trying to scuttle a diplomatic mission? What is she seeing that more experienced Agents aren't? Why won't the others listen? Is something bigger, more menacing, happening to her-to them? Will-CAN-Alpha One survive?

Dr. Megan McAllister was already a pretty unusual human -- NASA astronaut, professional astronomer, polymath -- when she encountered the man in the black Suit that night in west Texas. What Division One Agent Echo didn't know, when he recruited her to the Agency, was that she was even more special.But he'd find out, soon enough.Stephanie Osborn, aka the Interstellar Woman of Mystery, former rocket scientist and author of acclaimed science fiction mysteries, goes back to the urban legend of the unique group of men and women who show up at UFO sightings, alien abductions, etc. and make things...disappear...to craft her vision of the universe we don't know about. Her new series, Division One, chronicles this universe through the eyes of recruit Megan McAllister, aka Omega, and her experienced partner, Echo, as they handle everything from lost alien children to extraterrestrial assassination attempts and more.

After returning the healer Doron to his homeworld of Edeptis, Echo takes Omega on a training run to make her a Pan-Galactic Coalition-certified starship pilot-celestial navigation, extra-vehicular activity, emergency repair, planetary surveys, you name it. And he secretly delights in seeing Omega's joy at finally fulfilling a childhood dream.But when the Cortians show on the scene, intending to take Alpha One into custody for crimes against the Cortian Amalgam, the resulting space dogfight severely damages the Trojan Horse, causing it to crash on a primitive protoplanet. Both Echo and Omega are badly injured, and it will take both of them working together to survive in the wreckage, while more Cortian vessels search for them overhead, and Fox and the rest of Alpha Line try to fight their way through to rescue their friends and colleagues.
