“Deep space holds secrets… and one astronomer for NASA has found a big
one. But it’s not what she thinks. Dr. Melody Adams, a physicist and the
Gemini North Observatory, was studying Pluto in the telescope data and
it struck her as odd. The numbers didn’t make sense. Could there be an
extraterrestrial object in our solar system? She followed protocol. The
scientific community didn’t believe her. And before she knew what
happened, her career was over. The day that changed Melody’s life was
like any other over the previous two years. She’d found she had a gift
for writing and her career as an author had almost healed the pain of
losing her job. When the Secret Service rang her bell, everything
changed. Something was nearing Saturn… and it was slowing down. Had
she been right about the object? You’ll love this hard science fiction
novel because Melody is about to find out that everything she knew about
space and time was wrong.”– From publisher. Strong language and some
violence.

The NLS synopsis reads:
Early in the twenty-third century, young Priscilla “Hutch” Hutchins serves as a space pilot for a team of archaeologists investigating a long-extinct galactic civilization. Marvelling at the monuments left on distant planets, Hutch and her colleagues confront the natural hazards of new worlds and stay one step ahead of human colonizers, as the archaeologists unravel a secret that may be the key to human survival.
