William Flynn's idealistic dreams of a fresh start with his fiancé on humanity's first interstellar colony are shattered when the colonist ship he boards is flung far from its intended destination, appearing in an uncharted corner of the universe.

Now, Flynn and the crew of Tereshkova are forced to partner with a mysterious alien known as Asar, who offers to guide them to a new habitable world. But the journey to safety thrusts them into a bloody feud between two vastly advanced races—with one bent on eradicating all who oppose them.

Caught in the middle of a catastrophic war and billions of lightyears from home, Flynn must put his trust in otherworldly strangers to survive and find a new home amongst unfamiliar stars—one far from the life he'd hoped for.
