Margot McCallan expected to sleep peacefully through the months' long journey to a new life on a distant colony planet. But she's rudely awakened and rescued from a hypersleep chamber full of fellow colonists who have turned into ghouls with an insane hunger for flesh.
Chief of Operations Izzy Ramirez expected the usual uneventful trip ferrying sleeping colonists and their supplies. But when a saboteur repeatedly triggers a virus that cripples the ship's computer and wakes colonists randomly, she has to lead the rescue parties to save those lucky few who don't wake up hungry.
Margot and Izzy should never have met, despite sharing that journey. But now they're a team, working to end the nightmare and save the lives of thousands of people. As their feelings for each other grow stronger, they try to wait, to put romance on hold until they are no longer facing danger together. But it's hard not to reach out for hope in the midst of horror.
