    In 2031, Joe Madrid stood at the pinnacle of human achievement-a trillionaire genius whose ThermoVeil invention saved Earth from a climate apocalypse eight years earlier, shielding the planet from grave global warming. Adored as a hero, he's rewritten humanity's future. But genius has a deadly cost. The device that's cooling the world is devouring Joe from within, its radiation gnawing at his cells. As his body fails, a ghost from his past reemerges, reigniting buried passions and shattering his ironclad control. Worse, the enemies he exposed in his rise -shadowy forces peddling doom for profit-now hunt him mercilessly. With time running out, Joe must unravel the ThermoVeil's fatal flaw, outmaneuver assassins in the dark, and confront the woman who could save or doom him. Survival demands everything: his mind, his empire, his heart. Or will the savior of Earth become its greatest cautionary tale?

    Far-future earth is nothing but a wasteland planet, under the control of a few wealthy families. The Sanatanas are one of those families. In the coastal town of Mar Vista, Don Fausto Santana runs his resource-harvesting enterprise, and he will stop at nothing to get what he wants. His son, Tulio Santana, hasn't been to earth in ages. He's just arrived via the Jewel-of-Mars colony from his latest tour in the Intergalactic Navy, but when he returns to his childhood home, something just seems wrong. His father is exploiting workers, there are mysterious riots happening all over the city, and there's strange magic in the air. No one seems to be giving him answers, so Tulio must go out and find those answers for himself, no matter the risk. The Solstice Bandit is a futuristic re-imagining of The Mark of Zorro, full of adventure, magic, and vigilante justice. I wrote this as a school project, so it's a bit shorter, but I hope you enjoy!
