A deepening problems aboard a deep-space colonisation vessel has forced most of its staff to evacuate towards the nearest globe. Through the evacuation, a ship, carrying three young friends to safety, malfunctions and strands them in interstellar space. It’s not a long time before the Ranegr – a drifting dispatch of outlaws – salvages their derelict pod. Place to function in the reactor core with a captain with conquest on his brain, and stalked by bizarre creatures in the shadows, the children’s bid to escape and return house is just one thread within a internet of ambition and clashing wishes, bringing them ever nearer to a historical mystery lurking in the cosmos.
