Beware the helping hand. What it offers may not be what we expect.
Milo Hughes was five years old when his parents smuggled him onto humanity's first contact mission. Eighteen years later, he's stranded at the edge of the galaxy with a motley band of survivors, no way home, and no one coming to help.
To save his parents, his crew, and every soul on Earth, Milo does the unthinkable: he surrenders an arm, a leg, and a piece of his brain to become the pilot of an alien starship he now wears like a body.
That's when the cat shows up.
Its name is Proxy. And it speaks for something vast, unknowable, and very interested in what Milo just agreed to.
The Foundry promised to save humanity. Milo is only now understanding what that means.
