Teen survivors on a space station battle grief, shortages, and suspicion when new deaths make a virus or killer seem equally possible.
First published 2018
The Story
After a deadly virus kills the adult crew aboard a space station, the teens left behind must take over leadership and keep their home running. Lindley, who expected to inherit command someday, is suddenly forced to act as commander while managing grief, fear, and scarce resources.
When another young crew member dies with symptoms that resemble the old outbreak, the station spirals into panic. Lindley and her closest allies must decide whether the disease has returned or whether someone on board is hiding in plain sight.
As the deaths mount, Lindley tries to hold the station together, protect the survivors, and uncover the truth before everyone turns on one another. The mystery tightens around the group as trust, friendships, and romantic tensions come under pressure.
