Fierce Girls

“I love being a Marine but there are days…We may have a lot of the same problems in 2122 we did a hundred years ago but back then the Gul brothers weren’t paying lots to see my head on a spike! Not that I was born yet but that’s not the point! So I’m a pretty good shot and Rick is even better. Did I ask daddy Gul and his boys to go on a rampage? No, I didn’t! But now we have to leave the planet and go to the New Hope colony where the locals like to eat people!”

-Staff Sergeant Susan ‘Molly’ Bennett, USMC

In early 2122 Marine recon squad leader Staff Sergeant Susan ‘Molly’ Bennett has her first encounter with members of Hassan Gul’s family. The fight makes her a hero to a nation and to nine-year-old Ciara McCord O’Brien in particular.

The Guls have been committing murder and mayhem on three continents for years. High on their list of targets is anyone or any nation involved with the starship and colony program to develop Earth’s first extra-solar colony on Tau Ceti 4. Now Gul’s primary target is Molly and the Marines who killed his sons.

Hassan Gul’s thirst for revenge brings her together with Ciara’s dad LT Paul ‘Rick’ O’Brien. The result of that incident results in attracting a whole new level of attention from the surviving members of the Gul family of killers. Their only safe haven may be the New Hope colony on Tau Ceti 4.
