    About this ebook

    When the Blue Horizon arrives at Sapphire, the last thing Theresa and Stan expect is to find people already there. The ship's been traveling sublight for over fifteen hundred years and things are falling apart. Too bad they can't make contact the people on the surface. Whoever they are.
