In the glow surrounding him a shape moved. Matt knew it wasn’t thickening dust. It reminded him too much of the living darkness he’d encountered the night before. He couldn’t shake the feeling that something stood there, hovering, watching him…
Fifteen-year-old Matt Trelock figures his days on Mars are numbered. He’d been causing too much trouble for the company running the colony. But when his shuttle crashes deep in the Tharsis Plateau he realizes that the company is the least of his problems. As if survival in the Martian wilderness isn’t hard enough, Matt becomes aware of another presence. An alien presence that he’s sure desperately needs his help. But how can Matt help anyone when he can barely help himself?
This is Matt’s story. His quest to find his strength, test his courage, and trust his heart.
