By the 25th century, death is a solved problem. A human mind is a quantum waveform, archived and poured into a fresh cloned body whenever the old one wears out and eighty billion deathless souls now crowd a single exhausted Earth.

Brigadier General Greg Body has a way out: a red dwarf called L 98-59, thirty-five light-years away, with a world that might be green. But Greg has just been forced out of the very corporation he founded — Corpus Ad Astra — by MOMI, the artificial super-intelligence the markets installed to run it. So he stakes everything on the expedition itself, "rolling out" his crew into the archive for a relativistic crossing the odds-makers price at a million to one.

Thirty-five years later they wake around a new sun, watched over by DADDIE — an AI with a baseball coach's heart and an unshakable loyalty to the people in his care. The planet they name Aurora Dawn is no Eden: hostile jungle, monstrous fauna, and a saboteur already moving among them. Because back in Sol, MOMI may need this colony to fail.

Light-years from any help, a handful of the deathless will discover what immortality truly costs — and witness the price of innocence lost.
