Harvey Crane woke up at the edge of a world that shouldn't exist—with a pink sky, triangular trees, and a beautiful woman who could erase his spaceship with a wave of her hand. But when she begs him to wake up and claims to be his wife back on Earth, Harvey must face a terrible question: is this strange paradise his new reality, or is he still trapped in his ship, lost forever in the moment he broke the light barrier?
