The race is on, the doomsday clock is counting down, and if he fails it will be more than his wife and child that are caught in the fallout. It’ll be the world.

Much, much worse. Once the secret is out, the universe will never be the same.

She still isn't even quite sure what that else is. The one thing she does know? Things are getting messy, and this is only the beginning. Gant is gone, Captain Mann has been captured, her so-called team is ready to make a run for the stars, and she's pretty sure the gift that saved her life is no gift at all.

His mission was to protect the innocent, including his son. Instead, he's the only survivor.

Sheriff Hayden Duke was born on the starship Pilgrim, like his father, and his father before him. He expects to die any second.
