A Global Rift in Space-Time. All Living Beings Gone Save Two Humans. An Impossible Rescue Mission.
Vaughn Singleton never imagined that a routine visit to NASA's most secretive facility would thrust him into a nightmare. Trapped in a world where all of humanity has vanished, Vaughn struggles to survive, haunted by the cryptic message he received moments before the world went dark. Somewhere out there, alone in the vastness of space, astronaut Angela Brown witnesses the same devastating event—a life-stealing wave of light originating from CERN's Large Hadron Collider.
As Vaughn crosses a desolate Earth, fighting off depression and alcoholism, his unexpected discovery of Angela's survival on the International Space Station sets off a daring plan. Against all odds, Vaughn races to reach her, soaring into space with a hastily retrofitted craft that's barely spaceworthy. But even if they can make it back to Earth together, the mysteries lurking beneath the surface are far from solved. What wiped out humanity? Why is gravity itself behaving strangely around Geneva? And what are the ominous structures rising from the ground manipulated by unseen forces?
What Vaughn and Angela uncover could shatter everything they know about the universe. Yet, the greatest dangers lie ahead as their quest reveals that they are not as alone as they thought—and something far worse than extinction is looming.
"Like The Martian on (and above) Earth. An epic survival story with very human characters, clever problem-solving and a gripping mystery. The end left me with no idea where Dean was going with the story, I couldn’t wait for the next book.” (Craig Alanson, NYT best-selling author of Expeditionary Force)
