With deeply moving human drama, nail-biting suspenseand bold speculation informed by a degree in physicsC. A. Higgins spins a riveting science fiction debut guaranteed to catapult readers beyond their expectations. Serving aboard the Ananke, an experimental military spacecraft launched by the ruthless organization that rules Earth and its solar system, computer scientist Althea has established an intense emotional bondnot with any of her crewmates, but with the ships electronic systems, which speak more deeply to her analytical mind than human feelings do. But when a pair of fugitive terrorists gain access to theAnanke, Althea must draw upon her heart and soul for the strength to defend her beloved ship. While one of the saboteurs remains at large somewhere on board, his captured partnerthe enigmatic Ivanmay prove to be more dangerous. The perversely fascinating criminal whose silver tongue is his most effective weapon has long evaded the authorities most relentless surveillanceand kept the truth about his methods and motives well hidden. As the ships systems begin to malfunction and the claustrophobic atmosphere is increasingly poisoned by distrust and suspicion, it falls to Althea to penetrate the prisoners layers of intrigue and deception before all is lost. But when the true nature of Ivans mission is exposed, it will change Althea foreverif it doesnt kill her first.
