About this listen

Sara Lafeete struggles to complete her work shift installing wiring in the ship's tunnels on the asteroid Psyche. Exhausted and suffering from the initial stages of radiation poisoning, she takes a detour back to the base through an ancient lava tube. Suffering from radiation brain fog, she takes a wrong turn and becomes lost as her radiation levels spike further.

Salaam Rahal detects energy readings on orbital paths that will intersect with Psyche. Faced with a possible attack, Commander Calager McGeen must defend the base and leave Sara to her own devices. Sara stumbles across what could be a fantastic discovery, or is it an hallucination? Can Sara find her way through the lava tubes back to the base? Or will she die a slow, lonely death?
