          WE THOUGHT THEY WERE HARMLESS. WE WERE WRONG. When journalist Stacy Sterling arrives at Collins Space Station to report on the mysterious abandonment of humanity’s farthest outpost in the Asteroid Belt, she learns the real story: the imminent launch of the Solar System’s first starship. But this starship was not built by humans. It was built by Inorganics, rogue artificial intelligences who take resources without regard to the cost in lives. Officials claim the Inorganics pose no threat, but Stacy, who lost her father to the machines, knows they're capable of great harm. To prove it, Stacy must now work with an untrustworthy ally and expose this existential threat to humanity before it's too late.
