AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'For Charles, responding to Station 332's emergency help request starts out no different than any other mission. She's been paired with a near-retirement medic, Robin, and a lax mechanic, Jay. Their job is simple: check the station, kill any threats, provide assistance if needed, then return to Central.

'But this is unlike any assistance request Charles has been on before.

'Someone or something has destroyed the station, smashing the control panel and upending equipment. They find two dead bodies in the bedroom, and the third staff member is missing.

'Robin labels it a murder-suicide, but Charles has doubts.

'Something is killing Central's best fighters, leaving humanity defenceless. It's spreading quickly. And the danger lives closer to home than anyone ever expected...'

    'A sci-fi horror novel from a USA Today bestseller and rising queen of atmospheric horror, in print for the first time!

    'When a guard discovers an unusual lifeform on her remote moon outpost, she disregards protocol to investigate, with catastrophic consequences. The parasitic alien wears its victims' skins and adopts their personalities. It's a perfect disguise, and allows the creature to spread without being detected. By the time humanity realizes it's facing extinction, a third of its space stations have already gone dark.

    'As the alien's ruthless progress collapses communication networks, wipes out defenses, and leaves hundreds of stations to fend for themselves, a handful of remarkable individuals must find a way to battle the greatest threat the universe has ever encountered...or die trying.'
