After another round with TSA, Sterling and Jessica are leaving them behind once and for all, which officially makes them fugitives. Brody came back for them, this time after making the most troubling discovery he has to date. There is far more going on than any of them thought. With Kaitlyn safely aboard, they all escape into deep space with one big thing on their mind: telling the surviving colonies about what Dr. Jeremiah Lynch and his organization are really up to. Then, a new governmental authority can be installed and both races can endure this plague together. And, it would be nice to make a stop along the way to have Sterling's horrific implant removed. However, there are some unresolved quarrels among this group, and they might encounter both dangers and allies that none of them had ever imagined. Can Brody lead his family through their labyrinth of objectives in what is left of the quadrant to accomplish their mission? Their path to solace may not be what it seems.
