Despierta

by Beth Revis

First published 2012

Amy opens her eyes in the freezing chamber of the starship Fortuna. She should still be in cryogenic sleep for another fifty years, along with her parents and hundreds of other frozen passengers traveling to a new planet. The three-hundred-year journey to their destination was supposed to end with everyone waking together. Instead, Amy finds herself alone and decades ahead of schedule. Someone deliberately thawed her out early. As she explores the massive ship and meets the people who have been awake during the journey, Amy realizes her early awakening was no accident. Someone wanted her conscious, but she doesn't know who or why. The ship carries secrets that threaten not just her survival, but the fate of everyone still sleeping in the frozen chambers below.
