Someone needs to prevent the discovery of life on Mars, and the result is fatal
The first crewed mission to search for life on Mars encounters heated opposition from the religious right, but they're not the only ones dreading positive results.
Astronaut Hattie Fredericks's dream is realised when she is selected for the voyage, but her presence on the Starship coincides with a series of incidents which threaten to derail the mission.
After a near-miss while landing on the planet, the world watches as Hattie and the crew struggle to survive. But worse than the harsh elements are their suspicions that someone is trying to destroy the mission.
After several crew members die, Hattie doesn't know who to trust. And her only allies are 35 million miles away. As the tension ratchets up, violence and suspicion invade both worlds.
Will Hattie discover life on Mars, or die trying?
