About This Book

An aging naval captain is roused by a battle alarm when a massive unidentified spacecraft appears and halts above a nearby carrier during exercises; crew and officers scramble to assess the threat using radar and drone infrared imagery while fear and professional calm vie on the bridge. With limited data and ambiguous visuals, the captain weighs tactical choices and personal feelings about vengeance and duty, confronting the limits of human judgment when faced with incomprehensible technology. The narrative explores command responsibility, the stress of sudden crisis, and the uncertainty of first contact.
