A government secret threatens all life on Earth. Can one scientist get off the ground to save humanity and herself before doomsday?

Charlotte Miller never backs down from a challenge. Haunted by her astronaut mother's disappearance on a decades-old exploratory mission to Venus, the distraught scientist will do anything to find out what happened to her. When data surfaces that points to a global calamity, Charlotte is desperate to follow in her mom's footsteps to solve both mysteries.

Taking matters into her own hands, Charlotte accepts a top-secret presidential assignment to track down her mother. Partnered up with experts to save the global population, she hopes to find a new home before the deep state stops her and humanity is rendered extinct.

With the world's fate sealed, can this determined daughter rescue everyone-even if she's hurtling toward certain death?
