In the future, humanity has spread throughout the solar system, on planets and moons once visited only by robots or explored at a distance by far-voyaging spacecraft. No matter how hostile or welcoming the environment, mankind has forged a path and found a home.
In the far reaches of the solar system, the outer planetsโbillions of miles from Earth, unknown for millenniaโare being settled. Neptune, the ice giant, is swathed in clouds of hydrogen, helium, and methane and circled by rings of rock and dust. Three years ago, Ilona Magyrโs father, Miklos, disappeared while exploring the seas of Neptune. Everyone believes he is deadโcrushed, frozen, or boiled alive in Neptuneโs turbulent seas.
With legendary space explorer Derek Humbolt piloting her ship and planetary scientist Jan Meitner guiding the search, Ilona Magyr knows she will find her fatherโaliveโon Neptune.
Her plans are irrevocably altered when she and her team discover the wreckage of an alien ship deep in Neptuneโs ocean, a discovery which changes humanityโs understanding of its future...and its past.
