The Upper Tentacle

di Amanda Helms (Autore)

Union Square & Co., 2027

The admin for a corporate retreat and a body-splitting alien team up to solve the murder of the company's president at a closed ski resort before their alien overlords inflict dire consequences for humanity's collective insubordination. Nia would probably rather be anywhere than a closed ski resort, supporting Hugh Callahan, the president of Crestone Learning, at a company retreat. As the only admin, she is responsible for pretty much everything, from making sure that meals are on time, to preparing speeches—and also apparently solving the murder of the aforementioned and newly deceased Hugh Callahan, who was found murdered in a resort hot tub. Meanwhile, Khearozoth, a 4th level subordinate class of shelgol'gah—the dimension-traversing, body-splitting, entity-eating alien species that has been taking over Earth, one megacorporation at a time— had one job at the retreat: to make sure that Hugh appropriately honored their master, the prodigiously hungry Greatest Supreme. When the Greatest Supreme learns about Hugh’s death, they task Khearozoth and Nia with finding the killer. Now this unlikely pairing must work together to solve the murder—because there is a killer on the loose, and the Greatest Supreme does not brook disappointments...
