Imagine a horrible virus that kills almost everyone not just on Earth but the satellite planets as well.
0.0001% of the people affected will make it and one of those is Jamie. She is on a satellite planet working as a vet after leaving her family and her longtime boyfriend back on Earth. This is her story and that of the few survivors left. It is a brave new world that greets this rag-tag group of survivors as they shuttle from planet to planet looking for answers and others on their way back to Earth. For an apocalyptic novel set in space, there is a sweetness to it that will make you think about what it means to be human long after you finish the book. Anne Corlett captures the frailty, fear and faith that it takes to deal with extreme loss and loneliness beautifully. It was a treat to read and what should have been a horror story became so much more.
