Alyssa Bresnahan
In a demilitarized zone on the border of human space, long range spy satellites are mysteriously going quiet, and no one know why. Captain Susan Kamala and her crew are dispatched to figure out what's going on and solve the problem.
That problem, however, is a mysterious, bleeding-edge alien ship that no human vessel could hope to match in open conflict. But, it's not spoiling for a fight.
Now, the Captain and her crew must figure out how to navigate a complicated game of diplomacy, balancing the needs of their corporate overlords, and the honest desire for a lasting peace between the two races, all without letting a long-standing cold war turn hot.

The performance by Alyssa Bresnahan as the narrator is a definite highlight. Her delivery is compelling, and she brings the characters to life with a nuanced portrayal that adds depth to the story. Bresnahan's narration alone might be worth the listen, even if the plot itself leaves you wanting just a bit more.
The story's pacing is solid, but it ends on a cliffhanger that leaves you wondering if there's more to come. This unresolved ending might be frustrating if you're looking for a complete narrative arc, but it also sets the stage for a potential sequel though there's no indication yet if one is planned.
One area where the book stumbles is the twist near the end. While the twist is certainly unexpected, it left me more confused than intrigued. It feels somewhat disjointed from the rest of the narrative, pulling the reader out of an otherwise immersive experience.
Overall, In the Black is a solid read with strong narration and believable science, but it doesn't quite hit the mark as a standout in the genre. If you're in for a good, though not great, sci-fi adventure, this book is worth your time.
Great Narration and Believable, with a plot twist

5 out of 5. For some reason the Audible review page is not letting me actually Rate this Title.
I like this story in that it portrays both sides
