About This Book

A small crew hurtles to a distant single-planet system to determine whether it can save humanity, but prolonged isolation has eroded their mental stability. Most members are listless or volatile; one is openly insane and has sabotaged the ship's transmitters, forcing the team to contemplate a risky return voyage if the world is habitable. Tension rises as survivors must balance hope and despair, personal fractures, and the imperative to warn Earth before a foretold stellar catastrophe, while claustrophobic routine and mutual suspicion threaten mission and morale.
