“Persona Non Grata”

The book can be purchased through Amazon (US) at
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01JWO47AI/ref=nav_timeline_asin?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 The goal is to give a little back to a community that gave so much to us. After working closely with members of the SAVL team on another project, we determined they were good stewards and someone we would like to develop a long term relationship with.
The story itself is based on the planned transition from military service to civilian life and how plans do not always go smoothly. Below is the backcover synopsis:
"For generations, old Earth has been called Terra as humanity has struck out across the solar system and beyond. Colonies throughout the Sol System; on Luna, Mars and outlying moons like Ganymede and Titan, all have their own governments, but Luna remains the effective seat for the entire Galactic Union.
The Legion is the peacekeeping force for the entire Galactic Union, and after thirty years of serving humanity abroad, Legionnaire, Ari Gadsden has retired. He is returning home, to Terra.
But the political winds have changed. Realities have changed. The Legion and it's members, active duty or retired, are no longer welcome and he is left stranded on Luna, persona non grata. But a life spent in the military does not produce a man willing to take things lying down - it produces a man like Ari, who makes his own luck.
The solution to any problem requires a plan, but Ari can't do it alone... meeting new friends and making new allies. But can he trust them? Problems on Terra have been brewing for years but no one knows the reason. He needs to investigate it up close... in person... but is he going in as a problem solver, or the sacrificial lamb? If his career taught him anything, for a mission of this scope Ari needs a partner he can trust..."
