Redshift

It appears out of nowhere-one moment the sky is empty, the next, there's a rent in the fabric of space itself. And the System is about to change forever.

In the far reaches of the Rim Mountains, itinerant field-scientist Aran Romeu is searching desperately for the cure to an incurable disease-one that's slowly killing his best friend. He's sworn to do whatever it takes to find it. But when a portal opens in the deep space at the edges of the Joias System, and something comes through, he realizes that 'whatever it takes' will involve travelling into the uncharted space beyond the portal. And he's not the only one after the cure, and willing to do whatever it takes to get to it first ...

No one knows what's beyond the portal. And it's an open question if Aran-or anyone-will survive long enough to find out.
