What would you do with humanity's second chance?
Astromedic Evie Cunningham awakens from an unprecedented cryogenic sleep to find Triton transformed into a lush, habitable world. As she and the members of Mission Team 4020 explore their new home, one thing becomes heartbreakingly clear: the sun has expanded into a red giant, obliterating Earth-and with it, all of humanity. Now they must rebuild humankind in this paradisal world.
But paradise has a price.
A parasitic entity, exiled from a higher dimension, has found its way to Triton. It seeks not only to replace humanity as heir to the solar system-but to redefine what it means to be human. Evie and her team must unite to survive in a world as alien as it is beautiful. Among them: a physicist harboring a dangerous secret, a carefree engineer, a lonely chemist searching for connection, and a commander who knows far more than she reveals. Can they rebuild civilization before it's consumed by a war against a being beyond comprehension? Or will their own hubris prove to be humanity's final undoing?
