Story
Amy joins her parents as frozen cargo aboard a massive spaceship bound for a distant new world. She expects to sleep through the voyage, but she wakes up decades too soon and realizes someone may have tried to kill her.
Stranded inside a tightly controlled society of people who live by the ship’s rules, Amy tries to figure out what went wrong and whether her parents are in danger. She is forced to navigate secrets, suspicion, and a strange new social order where everyone seems to know less than they should.
As Amy investigates, she crosses paths with Elder, the ship’s future leader, who is beginning to question the world he has been taught to trust. Together they start uncovering hidden truths about the ship, its leadership, and the people aboard it, while the danger around them keeps growing.
