In this thrilling Star Trek: Discovery novel, Commander Michael Burnham is thrust into a distant future shaped by catastrophe, where Starfleet has fallen, and survival depends on forging new alliances across an unknown galaxy.

In a desperate attempt to stop a rogue artificial intelligence from destroying all sentient life, Burnham used the Red Angel suit to guide the USS Discovery safely into the future. But something went wrong. She arrives alone—more than nine hundred years beyond her time—with no sign of her crew and no clear path home.

In this unrecognizable future, a mysterious event known as “the Burn” has shattered the United Federation of Planets and nearly wiped out Starfleet. Stranded in a fractured galaxy, Burnham must navigate unfamiliar worlds, shifting loyalties, and dangerous new threats.

As she searches for answers and any trace of the Discovery, Burnham builds fragile alliances and confronts the far-reaching consequences of a universe forever changed. What remains of Starfleet? Who can she trust? And how can she survive long enough to reunite with her crew?

Packed with action, exploration, and high-stakes adventure, this gripping space opera expands the Star Trek universe with time travel, artificial intelligence, and first contact in a bold new era.
