    Summary

    The Hail Mary has been shot out into the depths of the infinite void of space to search for an answer that may not even be there. Aboard, the three crew members lay in stasis as the ship hurtles like an arrow towards a distant star, with no hope of return, but a desperate hope to make things right.

    At home, two brothers are left in sudden and violent grief. A woman grapples with whether or not she made the right decision. The world strains and suffers under the weight of the coming Fimbulwinter.

    And then one of the beetles returns.

    Thirteen years early.

    Summary

    “Talk.”

    There’s a hitch of breath on the other end before Colt manages to speak.

    “I know you only said to contact you when there’s an emergency, but I think this really, really counts for one, man... there was an explosion near the site where Ryland was working. It happened yesterday. It’s all over the news. I came to his apartment and it’s… Court, it’s wiped. Everything’s gone. I’ve been trying to call him, but he’s unreachable.

    I have a really, really bad feeling. I didn’t know what to do.”

    Summary

    Eva feels like the breath is knocked out of her lungs when the man walks in.

    Dirty blond hair. Blue eyes. Sort of like… if Ryland Grace was hit by a car several times. It was undeniably him.

    “So you’re Eva Stratt,” The man says gruffly, slamming both hands on her desk. He looked exactly like Ryland, it was terrifying. It felt like watching a ghost haunt her in real life.

    “You’re the crazy woman that sent my baby brother up into space. Let’s talk, yeah?”

    or

    Colt Seavers finds out his twin brother was sent on a suicide mission. He does not take it well.
