On a six-year journey to Gliese 581g, Zarmina’s World, Daniel Medry and a crew of scientists plan to explore a brand-new world. But when a man-made virus wipes out most of Earth’s population and leaves the rest infertile, their exploration mission becomes humanity’s only hope for survival.

As their ship's issues become critical, some fear that someone onboard wants to keep them from making planetfall.

Civilisation is collapsing. Frustrated and angry after years of denial and inaction, a government of youth has taken power in North America, and a policy of institutionalised ageism introduced. All those older than the prescribed age are deemed responsible for the current state of the world, and are to be 'relocated', their property and assets confiscated. David Ashworth and his wife May find themselves among the thousands being moved to the southern deserts.

What if the god these people pray to is no god at all? And how in the world will she ever get back home?
