Description:

During a routine file conversion job, a hologram of beautiful, charismatic Dr. Isabella Castillo captures the attention of Benjamin O’Rourke, data-tier specialist for the Committee for Off-World Settlement (COS). Originally established to help the Committee gain a foothold in the uncharted quadrant, the Eilithian colony Isabella and her team founded ceased transmissions – leading COS to classify it as defunct. But the shadowy O’Rourke discovers the colonists have doctored their data files. This, he calculates, will be of very special interest to mega-corporation Nova, which has formally announced the development of a technology predicted to revolutionize space travel, opening up trade and exploitation of other world resources.
