In an unknown future, a woman soldier, is found guilty of murdering 340 civilian protestors. Her sentence should be execution but instead they offer her Exile. A group of scientists are experimenting on transporting humans to another world, and what better subjects to use than criminals?
“We’ve spent years calculating a destination. One that is harsh, a hell on Earth. One where you’ll very likely suffer and die. But it’s not certain. Supplies, items for survival, will be provided.”

All she knows is that she is in an unforgiving desert, battling dehydration and radiation, following a road built of bones into the unknown. Is the voice in her head God or something else?
