Knowledge is power. The kind that can either hold the universe together or blast it apart.
That is one of the few truths pilot Nick Pike believes in. A hero in a whole other life, he has since made it onto all the wrong lists. He’s found, however, his own Garden of Eden in the form of a cargo-hauling business he runs with his friend, Darby. But, like any Eden, this one comes with a snake.
When his ship makes an emergency landing, that snake appears in the guise of a former business partner. And the apple he holds out is a job of transporting a killer to a local warlord. The bounty offered will be more than enough to get Nick's ship up and flying again.
Nick gives reluctantly in to temptation and takes a bite out of that apple. All, however, is not quite as it seems. In fact, nothing is at it seems. Nick and Darby must then band together with an unlikely crew as they attempt to hold the universe together.
