When humanity's last hope becomes its greatest horror.
Captain Zoe Nakamura awakens from cryosleep fifty years too early aboard the generation ship Prometheus. Earth is dead. Their destination planet is inhabited by hostile aliens. And their ship is dying.
Worse yet, she discovers the classified "Phoenix Protocol"-Earth Command's final solution that would sacrifice 25,000 sleeping colonists, processing their bodies into biological terraforming materials to save the other half of humanity.
As systems fail and alien contact becomes inevitable, Zoe faces an impossible choice: implement mass murder to ensure human survival, or find another path that might doom everyone. But the ship's automated systems have their own agenda, and some crew members will kill to activate the Protocol.
With 50,000 lives hanging in the balance, Zoe must navigate sabotage, alien diplomacy, genetic conspiracies, and the fundamental question of what it means to remain human when survival demands becoming something else entirely.
The Phoenix Protocol is a hard science fiction thriller that explores the darkest edges of survival ethics, the potential for human-alien cooperation, and whether a species can evolve beyond its traumatic origins. When the choice is between genocide and extinction, sometimes the only answer is to transcend the question itself.
