Description
Saul Dumont knows the risks of wormhole transportation better than anyone. Stranded on Earth for years after losing contact with his family, he's now weeks away from re-establishing a link to the Galileo system. But when he stumbles upon a conspiracy to suppress a discovery of alien wormholes, a covert expedition is sent to investigate - only to have one of its members, Mitchell Stone, disappear in an accident. A second expedition travels via the wormholes to Earth in the near future, discovering a devastated solar system - all except for one man, Mitchell Stone. Recovered from an experimental cryogenics facility in the ruins of a lunar city, Stone may be the only surviving witness to the coming destruction of the Earth. But why is he the only survivor? As Saul and Stone try to make sense of their findings, they must confront the possibility that their actions - or lack thereof - could be the difference between survival and catastrophe for humanity.
