"Fear is a feeling, but it tends to run deeper than that. It's like a virus. Resilient and highly contagious. And even the smallest seed of it can grow to destroy you."

°°°°°°

It's the year 2280. Airborne particles were invented with the intent to eradicate diseases but instead they become radioactive, toxic and severely deadly to anyone who breathes in even a tiny amount.

The world becomes a dystopia and is uninhabitable.

With time running out for humans on earth, Hiro Tachibana is one of the scientists that has to find out if a new planet is fit for habitation. But when people start turning up dead on the spaceship and there are more questions than answers, Hiro realizes that he may not be able to trust anyone.

Not even himself.

Her eyes widen slightly and she raked her fingers through her hair before shoving her hands in her pockets. "Okay," she repeated and I let out a laugh as I shifted on the bed, patting the space next to me.
