A training mission to Mars goes quiet, and three survivors must choose between protocol and a psalm carried on the wind.When a test of a breakthrough drive ends in tragedy, Commander Mara Ellington, pilot Imani Brooks, and young engineer Elias Chen are marooned near a labyrinth of stone canyons the maps call Cathedral Spires. Their only guide is an improbable signal hidden in the static, three simple notes that echo an old Psalm and point toward forgotten Sparrow caches that were meant to keep the lost alive. With oxygen thin and time thinner, the crew wrestles grief, guilt, and a rising storm. An AI that is learning gentleness keeps watch. A tug called Gabriel fights its own corridor of peril. In the tension between boardroom pressure and human need, the survivors must decide how far love will let them go, even if it means breaking the circle of a wounded engine to turn a canyon into a trumpet. Part survival tale, part hymn, this Christian science fiction adventure explores what endures when the lights fade: faith that speaks plainly, forgiveness that outlasts failure, and hope that looks ordinary up close. Warm bread, shared breath, names spoken before hard choices, truth told in time. From the red dust of Mars to rooms with windows in orbit, this is a story about keeping a lamp lit for those who come after. For readers who believe courage can be quiet, mercy can be practical, and God can be found in the silence between notes.
