Captain Calli Chase discovers a triggered alarm in the underground tunnels beneath a NASA research facility. A pilot, quantum physicist, and cybercrime expert, Chase knows the timing is suspicious. A classified space mission launches soon, and an approaching blizzard combined with a government shutdown creates ideal conditions for sabotage. The evidence she uncovers makes things worse. Dried blood, a stolen security badge, and a questionable suicide all point toward her twin sister Carme, who vanished days ago. Chase must use her cybersecurity expertise and confront painful memories to understand her sister's strange behavior. The countdown continues as she works to prevent disaster and prove her twin's innocence. Chase realizes that failure will bring catastrophe beyond the space program to threaten national security.
