A surprising and gripping sci-fi thriller with a killer twist
The daughter of two astronauts, Romy Silvers is no stranger to life in space. But she never knew how isolating the universe could be until her parents’ tragic deaths left her alone on the Infinity, a spaceship speeding away from Earth.
Romy tries to make the best of her lonely situation, but with only brief messages from her therapist on Earth to keep her company, she can’t help but feel like something is missing. It seems like a dream come true when NASA alerts her that another ship, the Eternity, will be joining the Infinity.
Romy begins exchanging messages with J, the captain of the Eternity, and their friendship breathes new life into her world. But as the Eternity gets closer, Romy learns there’s more to J’s mission than she could have imagined. And suddenly, there are worse things than being alone….

Quotes

  • _Umaroth_has quoted4 years ago
    “You know, I only started talking to you because I wanted to see what you were like. The girl who stole my dream.”
  • Kyrithhas quoted2 years ago
    I get swept up in the joy of stretching myself, of being able to feel just how clever my brain can be sometimes. When I look at a problem and immediately know what to do, it feels like I’m flying.

    So why should I live at all?
    I could do what my mother did, and just … not. Check into a pod. Leave my life up to chance. Refuse to take responsibility.
    It would be so easy. But it would be so pointless. Every year I’ve fought to survive would be wasted.
    I realize then that I’ve made up my mind: I want to live. I want to live so much that I would tear out the throat of anyone who tried to stop me. I’m not going to give up. I’m not going to sit back and wait for J to find me and play more of his games.
    I’m going to fight. I’m going to do whatever it takes to survive.
