About This Book

A radio science reporter recounts how five ordinary humans are seized and transported to another world just as a vast crimson planetoid approaches Earth. Observatories detect minute changes in Earth's motion, an invisible purple atmospheric glow, freak weather, and an erratic trajectory for the incoming object, suggesting linked threats. The account traces the group's efforts to survive, piece together scientific observations, and confront mounting cosmic danger, blending tense adventure with speculative scientific detail as fragmented terrestrial anomalies reveal a looming planetary crisis.
