A lethal virus is awoken on an abandoned spaceship in this incredibly fast-paced, claustrophobic thriller.
They thought the ship would be their salvation.
 
Zahra knew every detail of the plan. House of Wisdom, a massive exploration vessel, had been abandoned by the government of Earth a decade earlier, when a deadly virus broke out and killed everyone on board in a matter of hours. But now it could belong to her people if they were bold enough to take it. All they needed to do was kidnap Jaswinder Bhattacharya—the sole survivor of the tragedy, and the last person whose genetic signature would allow entry to the spaceship.
 
But what Zahra and her crew could not know was what waited for them on the ship—a terrifying secret buried by the government. A threat to all of humanity that lay sleeping alongside the orbiting dead.
 
And then they woke it up.

      Zahra wants a new life for herself and her younger brother and sister, far away from the deaths of her parents and the people who destroyed them. A plan, orchestrated by her leader, Adam Light, promises a new home for them in the stars. The exploration vessel, House of Wisdom, sits deserted after a virus killed almost everyone onboard a decade ago. Now, Zahra and her team plan to take control of the spaceship and lead their people home. All they need to do is kidnap the sole survivor, Jaswinder Bahttacharya, and use his genetic signature to sneak onto the ship. However, their plans begin to deviate off course almost immediately. When they finally board, the truth behind the abandonment of the vessel is one they never saw coming. Among the dead lies a sleeping secret, one that they will inadvertently wake. VERDICT Wallace (The Memory Trees) delivers an exciting sf thriller that shines a light on government secrets, shifting blame, and elitism and class in a future society. The tight plot and well-developed characters create an engrossing read.--Kristi Chadwick, Massachusetts Lib. Syst., Northampton
