Narrated by: Mandy Fox

In an alternate 1957, portal technology ends the space race before it can begin. But when a young girl slips through and is stranded on the moon, her father must confront his past mistakes to bring her home...

A year after the tragic loss of his wife, Gillen Rainer is struggling to find closure. Unanswered questions linger even for his thirteen-year-old daughter, Allaire, who seeks solace in a memory far beyond her recollection.

As Sputnik orbits the globe every ninety-six minutes, Gillen and his team are set to announce a surprise of their own. The Alignment - a portal connecting the earth and the moon - is ready for visitors, effectively ending the space race. But when his daughter decides to set foot on the moon - alone, Gillen must confront his deepest fears and the true cost of his decisions. In this romantic literary drama, with the soul of sci-fi, Gillen embarks on a perilous journey that forces him to grapple with the ultimate question: Can he reclaim his future by rescuing what he's lost?
