Star Lawyers Corporation must defend a known criminal in Pirate Court to prevent ancient technologies from falling into the hands of expansionist star nations, which will lead to a new era of galactic war. Only pirate Captain Flavio Tavares, who faces terrible judgment by his peers, can lead Tyler Matthews to a derelict starbase abandoned by the collapsing Galactic Empire long ago. The HOUSE OF THE SILENT MOONS orbits a remote gas giant amid hundreds of planetoids and asteroids. Aboard this massive structure, where defenders expected to return victorious from an apocalyptic struggle with ruthless enemies, the doomed Imperial forces stockpiled powerful weapons and tech modules more advanced than anything available in Tyler's 32nd century civilization. Star Lawyers must locate the starbase quickly, because the clock is ticking. Aggressive forces hostile to the Terran Commonwealth also seek the lost trove of technology. To spring the guilty pirate captain from trial by his own people, Tyler faces a court where the judge blasts convicted defendants on the spot in trials that last a few hours at most. And the court appointed prosecutor, Kaito, is the middle son of the Matthews Family's greatest foe, Hideki Tsuchiya. You can expect action in deep space, fighting in the streets of the pirate city of Port Royal, and courtroom knock-down-drag out legal battles in the Pirate courtroom.
Who will claim the ancient, awesome arsenal awaiting aboard the HOUSE OF THE SILENT MOONS?

The infamous Tavares is at risk, having been charged by his pirate buddies of treason against the pirates.
Which is true as he was working undercover for MII. And he needs Tyler and the Star Lawyers Corp to defend him in a kangaroo court in a secret pirate location.
And to seeaten the deal Tavares intimated he knows where a secret alien station is containing some really horrific weapons are. Weapons that can crush planets. Now, Noah wants that info before their enemy does.
Thus starts a court case unlike anything you will ever read of..And intrigue and all kinds of twists that will have you gasping in surprise.
Author Tom Shepherd simply cannot put a foot wrong in any of these Star Lawyers series and every single book is simply compelling fare that proves nearly impossible to put down.
As House of the Silent Moons proves.
Enjoy.

The editors missed a few points here, but not enough to damage the whole.
Well done again, Dr Tom.

“What makes me a person?” “You have a friend.” “I do,” he said. “Therefore, I am.”
Tom Shepherd.
It’s so rich in character, plot and scene..
this book combines totally convincing forecasting future with great characters and a law trial procedural with some neat twists and turns to achieve full page-turner status—all without sacrificing intelligence for thrills. Another snagging installment in the series! Some real heartbreaking scenes that left me devastated and tearful, witty dialogue and fun moments.
I look forward to each new work Dr. Tom puts out!
