Tinka built her life around control, managing her emotions, relationships, and routines with precision.
SSU was supposed to be a fresh start, far from the deception, and unanswered questions she left behind.
But when someone from her past suddenly reappears, connected to dangerous truths she was never meant to uncover, Tinka's sense of security unravels.
Haunted by her past and cornered by her present, she must untangle truth from loyalty, danger from affection, and fear from love.
As long-buried traumas collide with new betrayals, Tinka is forced to face the version of herself she's spent years protecting: the little girl who learned too early that the people she loves never stay.
This book explores human parallels to space: The figurative distance we create between ourselves and others, and the literal vastness of the three-dimensional expanse that stretches beyond Earth's atmosphere.

Amidst their yelling match, a young girl sat under the table, her eyes overflowing with tears and head throbbing uncontrollably. Her family had always been an unconventional one, but that day marked its transition from unconventional to unhappy.

'A happy family.'
‶What did you wish for?″ a manly voice interrupted him.
‶Death.″
