Poi, lentamente, la memoria riaffiora: Grace si trova a migliaia di chilometri dalla Terra, su una minuscola navicella spaziale lanciata a tutta velocità...

"A wonderfully crafted space thriller. It has everything we loved about The Martian or Gravity, but more psychological depth. It's also a chilling picture of the Russian mentality and its workings, written by someone who truly understands it. With the resurgent conflict between the East and the West and the return of the threat of totalitarianism, this blockbuster book couldn't be more timely."-Zygmunt Miloszewski, bestselling author of Rage and Priceless
