The five Corps saved humanity — that's the official version. Daniel Greyson flies cargo between Luna and Mars for one of them. Solo runs, eighty days each way, with nothing but automated systems and his own mind for company. It's the kind of work that suits someone who prefers the silence. The silence has company now. Two people have taken up residence in Daniel's head — a sardonic ghost named Anthony and a quiet presence called Mia. Daniel has been managing them for years. What he can't manage is the dreams that come with them. Dreams that bleed into waking hours. Dreams that leave marks. When Daniel discovers what's actually happening, the hallucinations stop feeling like symptoms. They start feeling like evidence. The Corps saved humanity once. Daniel is beginning to understand what that cost and who is still paying the price.
