A new chapter begins in Marvel's thrilling ALIEN saga!

Welcome to Paradiso, where the money flows like blood and the blood flows like acid! The Tulum of space, Paradiso is a hidden gem among the colonies with its tropical climate, white-sand beaches and remarkable population of hyper-wealthy criminals. When Colonial Marshals Dash Nanda and Lydia Reeves are sent there to bust a smuggling ring, they think they’ve hit the job-assignment jackpot. Meanwhile, smuggler Ricky Valentine came here to make a deal that would set up him and his crew for life. But the only ones getting lucky here are those hungry enough to take what they need! A chestburster is loose among the hapless hyper-wealthy and the seriously underpaid staff. But Xenomorphs aren’t the only threat lurking in the neon lights, and the Nostromo’s legacy will soon haunt paradise!
