About this listen

Alone in deep space, she wakes to find her crew dead, her ship failing, and a mysterious signal pulsing from a distant planet. Is she truly alone?

In the unforgiving silence of deep space, a lone astronaut awakens—disoriented, alone, and haunted by fractured memories. The cryostasis pod that saved her life now feels like a coffin. The rest of the crew? Gone—victims of mysterious malfunctions that ravaged the ship. Only a glitchy, well-meaning robot remains to keep her company.

Stranded twenty-five light-years from home in an alien solar system, the spaceship is falling apart. Doors hiss open without command, shadows flicker in the failing lights, and something in the ship's stern—a colossal, energy-draining cargo hold—remains sealed, defying her attempts to uncover its secrets.

But isolation might be the least of her fears. As sensors detect a pulsing signal from the rings of a distant gas giant, the question becomes chillingly clear: What—or who—is out there?

A tense, atmospheric journey through the void, Contact: Echoes in the Dark is gripping hard science fiction from million-selling author Joshua T. Calvert. Fans of Andy Weir, Arthur C. Clarke, and Peter Cawdron will be captivated by this tale of survival, mystery, and the eerie possibilities lurking in the dark reaches of space.
