Synopsis
Ex-UN pilot turned transporter receives mysterious package, reigniting hope and launching a solar-spanning journey with an unusual companion.
49-year-old James Lynx once served as an officer and LEV pilot in the United Nations global army. After a devastating personal loss, he left the military and took work as a transporter shuttling cargo between Earth and Mars. Haunted by the past and struggling with regret, James has spent years searching for answers while drowning his sorrows. His life takes an unexpected turn when he receives a mysterious package that rekindles his hope and sets him on an unpredictable journey across the solar system. What begins as a simple transport job soon evolves into an adventure that will challenge everything he believes and force him to confront his past while protecting an unusual companion.
