by David Payne

Overview

Rita Olsen, Captain of the Wraith, is counting down the days until her retirement from Earth's Global Navy, mostly while in cryo-sleep. However, when an anomaly appears by Pluto, it is up to her and her crew to investigate and report back. What is out there in the depths of the solar system will surely change the course of history.
