Rob Boffard’s Outer Earth series thrilled readers with its no-holds-barred action and adrenaline, as it follows the story of Riley Hale’s attempts to save both humanity’s last refuge — and humanity itself. Yet Riley has friends helping her in her efforts, and their backstories are every bit as messy and intricate as her own.

This new collection, comprising four action-packed short stories, reveals the secret histories of Riley’s closest friends and allies, as they try to make their way in the dangerous, vibrant world of Outer Earth.

  • "Tracer is the literary equivalent of a base jump: fast, exhilarating and unforgettable, and once you start it you can't stop. I loved it."
    Sarah Lotz, author of The Three, on Tracer
  • "Ludicrously fast-paced, with a brilliant sci-fi setting, Tracer is an absolute blast of a read."
    David Owen on Tracer
  • "Reading Tracer is like being on a rocket-propelled roller coaster and trapped in a supersonic pinball machine at one and the same time. The action flies by in a blur and leaves you as breathless and reeling as the protagonists. Riley Hale battles to save the last remnants of humanity from a homicidal maniac and a secretive suicide cult in the claustrophobic, brilliantly evoked world of a crumbling space station where danger lies around every corner. A stunning debut by Rob Boffard that never lets up, from the nerve-jangling beginning to the explosive end."
    James Douglas on Tracer
  • "Readers who prize the rush of an action-packed plot will have fun with this."
    Publisher's Weekly on Tracer
  • "Ambitious and intriguing."
    Kirkus
  • "Boffard's story moves lightning fast."
    Publisher's Weekly on Zero-G
