By Lauren C. Teffeau (2026)
"A sapphic eco-thriller perfect for fans of Becky Chambers and Martha Wells." —Rebecca Roanhorse, New York Times bestselling author of the award-winning series Between Earth and Sky Dr. Jorna Benton is proud to be the Principal Scientist for the Climasphere, a massive, sea-going ecological nursery capable of supporting nearly every biome on Earth. On its inaugural mission to restore and re-wild collapsing ecosystems along the Atlantic coast, Jorna manages the Climasphere’s habitat and harvest, while her colleague—and inconveniently attractive commander—Ava Kaysar directs the rest of the vessel’s critical operations. When an explosion rocks the Climasphere, Jorna’s carefully-managed world is thrown into chaos, threatening both her personal and her professional future. And worse: she’s the prime suspect. To clear her name, save the mission, and preserve her chance at a future with Kaysar, Jorna must finally confront the secret she’s been running from all these years: a family and a faith that could destroy her. “High-tech, high-ecology, and high-tension family and work relationships all combine in a stunning new story from Lauren C. Teffeau. This adventure for humanity’s future survival will win your heart and your mind!” —Fran Wilde, award winning author of A Philosophy of Thieves “This gripping eco-mystery is a page turner with a no-nonsense romantic interest, a lovable robot companion, and an extraordinary solarpunk setting.” —Sarena Ulibarri, award-winning author of Another Life "Anyone who says there is no romance in science has never read Lauren C. Teffeau's stories. And I don't just mean the kissy-face kind of romance, I mean that soul-deep longing for understanding and connection to other people and the world we all inhabit. Let this be the future you imagine and work toward building, dear reader." —Curtis C. Chen, bestselling author of True Blue Kangaroo
