In Neil’s mind it started with the man in the park. Or, more specifically, with the vicious bite the man had given Neil. He was wrong about that. The December Plague had started weeks earlier, though no one knew it.

The early symptoms were so mild that almost no one noticed them. A scratchy throat. A feeling of lethargy that you just can’t shake. But then the slurring started. And an intense irritability. Finally, an irresistible urge to bite and consume accompanying an uncontrollable rage.

The Infected cannot be reasoned with and there is no known cure. They cannot recognize even their closest friends. Anything that attracts their notice risks being torn apart, including one another. Quarantined in a desperate attempt to contain the December Plague, the patients and staff of Wing Memorial hospital are left to fend for themselves. When the small security force sent to aid them are wiped out, the Infected run loose in the halls and Neil is trapped inside with them. Even worse is the knowledge that containment has failed and the outside world has no idea what’s coming.

Out of fifty thousand, only thirty-three survived the Keseburg and the alien AI called Issk’ath. Hurtling toward an unfamiliar planet with few supplies and no preparation, they believe they are the last of humanity.

But Indra, trapped inside Issk’ath’s colony, knows better. What she uncovers of the Keseburg’s past forces her to confront the lies that governed her entire history. Her thirst for justice leads the colony down an ever darker path that risks them all.

Issk’ath must make a choice: Betray its directives to save them and face its own termination, or help Indra get the justice she is bent on and risk Earth, itself.

The Keseburg once boasted a complement of fifty thousand.

Generations of hardship, space hazards and disease have whittled it down to just under thirty thousand.

That was the number when a small crew of resource miners departed on a routine asteroid run three months ago.

But when they return home to the ship, all traces of their friends and family are gone. The Keseburg is silent, adrift, and running out of fuel.

Sixteen hundred years ago, they fled Earth. Now their long journey may finally be at an end. None of them have ever walked on soil, felt rain, or breathed unrecycled air.

Their resources nearly spent, they sent a last exploratory mission to a new planet. It’s ideal… but they are not alone.

In the struggle for survival, they must make a choice. Sacrifice another species or accept their own extinction. And time is running out.
