Alex Benedict Series:

Benedict 01 A Talent for War (1989)

alien Ashiyyur, and it is up to Alex to venture into the core of the alien galaxy to learn
the astonishing truth.

The luxury space yacht Polaris carried an elite group of the wealthy and curious thousands
of light-years from Earth to witness a spectacular stellar phenomenon. It never returned.
The search party sent to investigate found the Polaris empty and adrift in space, the fate
of its pilot and passengers a mystery. Sixty years later, prominent antiquities dealer
Alex Benedict is determined to find the truth about Polaris-no matter how far he must
travel across the stars, no matter the risk.

Benedict 03 Seeker (2005) - winner of Nebula Award
Thousands of years after an entire colony mysteriously disappears, antiquities dealer Alex
Benedict comes into possession of a cup that seems to be from the Seeker, one of the
colony's ships. Investigating the provenance of the cup, Alex and his assistant Chase
follow a deadly trail to the Seeker-strangely adrift in a system barren of habitable worlds.
But their discovery raises more questions than it answers, drawing Alex and Chase into the
very heart of danger.

Benedict 04 - The Devil's Eye
Interstellar antiquities dealer Alex Benedict receives a cryptic message asking for help from celebrated writer Vicki Greene - who has been mind-wiped. She has no memory of her past life, or of her plea for assistance. But she hastransferred an enormous sum of money to Alex, also without explanation.The answers to this mystery lie on the most remote of human worlds, where Alex will uncover a secret connected to a decades-old political upheaval - a secret that somebody desperately wants hidden, though the price of that silence is unimaginable.
