Opis

At the edge of the Sol system, just beyond the Kuiper Belt, Humanity's first foray into the Great Beyond is a space station called The Quay. Originally planned as a springboard for future missions, the station has now become home to a variety of alien races. A devastating war against a common, mysterious enemy left the space around the Quay littered with destroyed ships, but it brought the disparate races together in a way many thought impossible. Currently enjoying an extended period of peacetime, the crew of the Quay is put on high alert after a smugglers' ship is attacked. A new and powerful enemy is searching for an incredibly valuable piece of space trash which could be used to construct something far more dangerous than a simple weapon: genetic material from the dawn of time, the key component to a device which can target and destroy specific races while leaving others untouched. With very little information, and fearful that they may be on the cusp of a new war deadlier than any they've ever fought, the Quay's executive officer Bauwerji Crow sets out to find and stop the attackers. Facing impossible odds and an enemy she knows nothing about, Bauwerji and the crew of her station are all that stand between the universe and genocide on a planetary scale.
