Survival and self-determination collide in this haunting,
pulse-pounding science fiction novel from Edgar Award–winning
author Matthew J. Kirby that spans both space and time. “An

review “Space exploration, teleportation, and cloning experiments
end in disaster in this heart-pounding thriller.″—Publishers
Weekly 2199. Deep-space exploration is a reality and teleportation
is routine. But this time something seems to have gone very, very
wrong. Seventeen-year-old Jessica Mathers wakes up in a lander
that’s crashed onto the surface of Carver 1061c, a desolate,
post-extinction planet fourteen light-years from Earth. The planet
she was supposed to be viewing from a ship orbiting far above. The
corridors of the empty lander are covered in bloody hand prints;
the machines are silent and dark. And outside, in the alien dirt,
there are fresh graves carefully marked with names she doesn’t
recognize. Now Jessica must unravel the mystery of the destruction
all around her—and the questionable intentions of a familiar
stranger.
