There are no police officers in international waters. There are no detectives, no paramedics, and no jails. When the nearest port can be over 100 miles away, sailors are on their own should a crime occur. On average, Earth and Mars are 140,000,000 miles apart. As one of seven people on humanity's first mission to the red planet, Flight Surgeon James Lake is a pioneer. But when a crewmate mysteriously disappears from an open airlock just days before landing on Mars, James is suddenly thrust into a crime scene investigation millions of miles away from home - and that's not mentioning the 20-minute communications delay between him and Houston. Trapped in a ship the size of a school bus with five potential killers, James must tread carefully. Death comes swiftly in the vacuum of space.
