The Disappearance of Charles Wentworth

Charles Wentworth was a man of some import. A scientist. Heir to a vast fortune. Connected.

Lost.

The repercussions of his disappearance will be far-reaching. With his father's health ailing, his absence will leave a fragile peace in peril. His family's enemies are watching closely. Readying themselves for their moment.

Wentworth needs rescuing. And there is only one man who stands any chance of getting the job done.

William Devarre.

He was a soldier once. Some might call him a war criminal. Now a man fleeing his past. Finding refuge with a subterranean civilisation cut off from the outside world for millennia. A people unaware anything outside their caverns exists.

His old masters need him. They don't care whether or not he wants to go. There is too much at stake.

Devarre will find Wentworth was sent a lot further away than he could possibly have imagined. His research area was not on some distant island chain. It was not even on this planet.

The Motisle Protectorate has been at peace for centuries. Since the last emperor was butchered, his forces ejected from the lands. But the empire has not forgotten them and the indignity it suffered at their hands.

They will have their vengeance.

Devarre has stumbled into a gathering war. A war not of cannon and fighter craft, but of strange beasts of the deep and unnatural creatures from the sky. This is not the world governed by science. There are other forces at work here.

Rescue Charlie is a tale where worlds collide. Where science fiction and fantasy mix. This is not a voyage for the faint of heart.
