Redemption Tour
A Wrecking Squad Story

A FREE Novella detailing the origin of The Wrecking Squad

Nobody Breaks a Breaker

When the Breaker Marines dropped onto Bustan 7 they thought it was just another mission. A drop in, smash your way through the enemy and recover the target. Not even a challenge to a black ops team with a reputation for taking no chances. That was until their target turned out to be far more than they could handle. Nothing could prepare them for what was to come, and how their mission would alter the course of their lives forever. Redemption, at a price. Nothing breaks a Breaker - except being exposed to what they had become.

One ship, one loyalty and a single shot at redemption.

Captain Rebekah Khan and her ragtag crew of the repair ship Sunstar finally have a chance to pay off their crushing debts when an automining vessel goes rogue. After preventing the high value cargo from disappearing into the outer system, they uncover sabotage only a crew with their military experience would recognise.


Instead of returning as heroes, they are blackmailed into taking on a new crew member and to hunt for a mysterious, uncertified spacecraft. Deep into the black, they desperately try to hide their murky past, while their loyalties are tested to their limits when they finally come across the marooned ship and its deadly cargo.


Featuring the action of Aliens, the camaraderie of Firefly and the infighting of The Expanse, The Wrecking Squad is the new science fiction novel from Nick Snape, author of the highly rated Weapons of Choice series.

A court conspiracy. A decrepit, gang-ladened space station, and the Bustan Navy on the way. What could possibly go wrong?

Forced to travel to the scum-laden Windward System, they are tasked with recovering a shipment of Marine wetware from Benetai, a rundown space station.

Running out of time, they fall back on their old skills, only to discover infuriating the Bustan Navy has consequences they’re not prepared for.

Join Rebekah and her crew as they navigate conspiracies, in-fighting and battle tech, in their own inimitable style while keeping another deadly secret from the prying eyes of the Emperor’s Court.

On Kindle at 3.99, FREE on Kindle Unlimited, in Paperback at $13.99/£12.99

You might shatter a Breaker’s heart, but they sure as hell won’t let you do it twice.

Like hounds under an Enforcer’s whip, Rebekah and the crew of the Sunstar are bullied into a punishing schedule. Returning from an intense, sickening mission, they are immediately sent out to infiltrate the secret bases of Court nobles as they play at war with their private armies. But the Warmonger is stirring, Countess Segfi flexing her muscles as the truth about the Scourge’s secrets is exposed. The ex-Breakers have something she wants, and she’ll stop at nothing to retrieve it.

With Rebekah and The Wrecking Squad caught up in deadly Court politics, the Countess takes a step too far, and the dogs of war slip their leash.

When the Warmonger steals something precious, Rebekah will go as far and as hard as it takes to get them back, even if it costs the lives of her crew.

The Butcher hunts for a secret … but which one?
With the Wrecking Squad seeking refuge on the rundown space station Benetai from the machinations of the Empire, fear of the Butcher sweeps the Emperor’s Court. Commanding a vulnerable navy and sceptical officers, Countess Segfi begins the hunt for the human/AI hybrid, risking everything as she attacks Daphene, where he first emerged as a threat.
But the Butcher shows his hand elsewhere, attempting to take Scarva’s ship and uncover the secrets of Senti FTL. Desperate, Scarva calls upon Benetai for help, only for Rebekah and her crew to respond as they recognise the AI’s involvement and dread what he might have stolen, and where he is headed next.
Drawn back into the fight, the Wrecking Squad are forced to hunt for the spawn of an alien Queen that may well be the key to Almaar’s future.

But the Butcher has other plans, and piece by piece, prepares for a war like no other.

Where The Expanse and Firefly meet, The Queen’s Spawn launches the second cycle of The Wrecking Squad series as humanity fights for its future.

When it snaps shut, thousands die breathless in an instant, a moment the Butcher captures, sharing it with the Court alongside a threat to the rest of the Empire’s vulnerable colonies. The price he demands for their safety is the Sunstar and their secret of Faster Than Light travel. One ship, one crew, to save billions.

Breaker's Ruin
Wrecking Squad Book 6

Expected Release March 2026

On Kindle at 3.99, FREE on Kindle Unlimited, in Paperback at $13.99/£12.99

What price for survival?

With the emperor dead, and the remaining fleet either subjugated or destroyed, the last of Almaar’s hope lies in the battleships the Senti rescued from the Butcher’s grip. With Countess Segfi in command, her exhausted fleet hides in the distant Windward system, subject to the ire of the Bustan navy, who watch warily on.

But hope lies with the Senti, and the Wrecking Squad tries to persuade their reluctant nest queens of the threat the Butcher presents for their future. With the faster than light capability at his virtual fingertips, they argue the paranoid AI/human hybrid will seek to destroy all threats to its existence.

While the Bustans remain on a hair-trigger, thirsty for their revenge, and the Senti dither, concerned about exposing their own home world to the Butcher, Rebekah and Segfi find themselves the only hope for their people ‒ lowlifes and highborn alike ‒ left behind and exposed to the whims of the Butcher’s insane need to survive. Together they devise a desperate tactic that could be the ruin of them all. One crew, one loyalty and a single shot at redemption.

They are the Breakers, and this is the end.
