"It is the eve of Earth's environmental collapse. A ship carries eighty elite graduates of a competitive program, who will give birth to a generation of children in deep space. But a bomb kills three of the crew and knocks The Phoenix off course. Asuka, the only surviving witness, is an immediate suspect. Asuka already felt like an impostor before the explosion. She was chosen to represent Japan, a country she only partly knows as a half-Japanese girl raised in America. But The Phoenix is all she has left. With the crew turning on each other, Asuka is determined to find the culprit before they all lose faith in the mission - or worse, the bomber strikes again" -- Publisher's description.
