If life were fair, ace pilot Jose Carriles should have ended up a desk jockey like his former friend Corin Timony, back on the lunar colony of New Destiny. Instead, hes the pilot of the Mosaica massive ship taking the Interstellar Unions first-ever mission to outside our solar system.
Timony should have been the best spy at the Bazaar, the lunar colonys international intelligence arm. Instead, shes been demoted to admin duties like monitoring long-range communications. She has no one to blame but herselfand maybe Carriles.
But when the Mosaic experiences a series of strange malfunctions and Carriles is forced to take a wild gamble to save the ship, he begins to suspect the reasons behind the exploratory mission werent exactly on the up-and-up.
At the same time, Timonys old instincts kick in as she realizes the distress call she received from the Mosaic has been wiped without a trace.
As people start to end up dead and loyalties are tested, Timony and Carriles find themselves entangled in a star-spanning conspiracy that drags them through the darkest corners of their governmentand their own personal failuresand face-to-face with a reckoning that could destroy humanity as we know it.
