When humanity faces its greatest challenge, a desperate mission to colonise a newly-discovered world is undertaken at enormous expense to the global syndicate charged with its implementation. A last-minute replacement of the system's engineer with the tech guru, prodigy, father of AI, Tanner Markham while the rest of the crew is already in cryo sleep, causes a deep rift to develop among the crew members upon wakening. Made worse when it becomes apparent that their destination has not been reached and they realise that they are marooned on an entirely different world in an uncharted system.

Josef Peeters, born in Dusseldorf Germany, in 1961, immigrated with his parents and two brothers to Australia in 1964. He became a naturalised Australian soon after his eighteenth birthday. After a lacklustre education spent in numerous schools across Queensland, Josef left at age fifteen to begin work as an assistant projectionist in the original Regent Theatre in Brisbane, before it became a multi-screen complex. Josef has followed artistic pursuits in performance, literary, and sculptural genres without ever gaining success or notoriety in any field. He now continues to write and self-publish for his own benefit and pleasure while maintaining a Caravan Park business with his second wife at Moulamein NSW, Australia.
