Description

THERE’S LIFE ON MARS

Adam Flynn is the only human ever born on Mars. After seventeen years of isolation with only a handful of scientists for company, the arrival of new colonists is a dream come true—until that dream becomes a nightmare.

Beneath the planet’s barren surface, something ancient stirs. Something hungry.

When an alien swarm ravages the colony, Adam finds himself leading a band of teenage survivors in a desperate battle against an enemy that doesn’t just kill—it can think, plan, and burrow its way into human minds.

This adrenaline-fueled sci-fi thriller weaves heart-stopping horror into a story of survival, found family, first love, and the true meaning of home—even when home wants to kill you.
