Leaving behind an Earth ravaged by climate change and a bioengineered disease, Dr. Daniel Radu, captain of the Space Ark Mayflower, and his crew believed they finally found a place they could call home: Cepheus, a planet with an advanced indigenous population, and the Headquarters of the Interstellar Collective for Peace and Security. An advanced indigenous culture, warm tropical oceans, and two sunsets every night in the lavender sky: a virtual paradise for the weary crew.
Masquerading as refugees from the war-torn planet Deneb-7, the Mayflower Clan is living the dream on Cepheus.

Navigating through his own quagmire of guilt and remorse, Daniel must find a way to keep the crew safe while battling his own demons. But what can one lone soul do against the odds? Will Daniel and his crew survive the peril in paradise? Unveil the mystery and embrace the danger in PARADISE IN PARADISE, the fourth novel in the series "The Chronicles of Deneb".
