    The crew of the Valkyrie awakens from their cryogenic sleep early - months early. The Valkyrie wasn’t made for long-term habitation, a cargo carrier engineered to be lived in for only a few hours on each side of a transport run. Now the crew is forced to learn to live together in an environment where the average room is the size of a closet and the corridors almost touch their shoulders as they pass. Two of the crewmembers are drawn together in a closeness they never thought they would find, but the other crewmember falls over the edge of sanity in the face of the cold void surrounding them. Dwight and Victoria soon realize that the tight quarters are the least of their problems...

It gets stranger as voices and sounds are suddenly heard, but no one is there to make the noises. Items in his home move around while he isn't looking and ghostly images of his family appear then vanish. Outside his home, where the world is as silent as a graveyard, is a fog thicker and more frightening than than anything he has ever encountered before...
