Someone’s got to clean up the cosmos. It might as well be them.
Former Intergalactic Exterminator Russ Wesley has found a new gig at Intergalactic Waste Management, LLC alongside old allies, in what promises to be a cushy job processing space debris on a state-of-the-art salvage vessel. But when he finds the dead body of a good friend stashed among the space wreckage, Russ is determined to learn how and why she died. Once again teaming up with Nina Hosseinzadeh and Steven Applebum, their investigation takes them back-and-forth between the criminal underbelly and the upper crust of intergalactic society, where their quest for the truth turns the murderer’s attention in their direction.
For listeners who enjoy The Kaiju Preservation Society by John Scalzi, A Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers, and The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams."

Finding work is easy. Staying alive is a little bit harder.
When Russ Wesley finds an unusual artifact in his grandfather’s collection of rare antiquities, the last thing he expects is for it to draw the attention of a ferocious alien from a distant planet. Equally surprising is the adventurous team of intergalactic exterminators dispatched to deal with the alien threat. They’re a little wild, and a little reckless. Worse yet, they’re so impressed with Russ’s marksmanship that they insist he join their squad . . . whether he wants to or not."
"Leo: You’ll step out the door, prepared for a normal day. But you’ll never reach your workplace. You will vanish, without a trace.
Who is The Horoscope Writer? It’s not Bobby Frindley. He’s an ex-Olympic athlete who has fast-talked his way into an entry-level position at a dying newspaper. He’s supposed to be writing horoscopes, but someone has been doing his job for him . . .
On his first night on the job, Bobby receives an email with twelve gruesome, highly-detailed horoscopes, along with a chilling ultimatum: print them and one will come true, or ignore them and all of them will.
Working with a skeptical co-worker, Bobby investigates the horoscope writer’s true identity, but the closer he gets to the truth, the more the predictions begin to be about him. Has he attracted the attention of a cruel puppeteer? Or is it possible that, like any good horoscope, it’s all in his mind?"
