Humanity has only recently found its place among the civilizations of the Grand Citadel. For Elena Hart, the wonder of exploring the stars has already begun to fade. She has one voyage left before she can finally retire and return home to her husband and children. Then something goes wrong. When a catastrophic failure knocks her ship out of faster-than-light travel, Elena and her crew find themselves stranded hundreds of light-years from known space. Their only company is a seemingly lifeless planet and something about it feels wrong. Strange dreams begin haunting Elena. One of her crewmates starts hearing things that aren’t there. And from the planet below, their scanners detect something they don’t understand. What began as a fight to get home soon becomes a fight to escape. But some things have waited a very long time to be found.
