Dr. Jacob Lansing has learned to relax a bit. At forty-nine, the veteran space explorer had become a bit of a slave to his dream: the commercialization of interplanetary travel. His Aerospace Governing Council is a one-stop-shop for all things interplanetary. But now—gleaned from a thirty-year-old snippet of radio telescope data discovered in the digital bone yard he calls his attic—a voice from the Alpha Centauri System beckons him. The call awakens the boy within, but…is Earth ready for star travel? Ready or not, Earth needs a new frontier, he tells himself, a place where humanity will once again see itself as a gift, not an infestation, a blight on nature.

As news of the discovery spreads, others begin to ask, “Why go there?” To this, the devout Jacob Lansing bristles and declares, “Because Christ came here!” To Jake, space is more than the final frontier, it is the Church’s final mission, and nothing could keep him from it, nothing except…maybe…a quest of a different sort: a journey of the heart.

Welcome to the twenty-second century. Meet Dr. Veronica Weslin: brilliant, sweet, innocent, and Catholic to the core. A tough childhood and the expectations of others define her more than she will admit to herself. This unpretentiously sexy, stunningly gorgeous twenty-nine-year-old virgin—known affectionately as the Angel of Adrenaline—is the daughter and granddaughter of doctors and is a Nobel laureate for her work in pediatric research. She is at once ordinary and extraordinary. She lives the life for which she was destined…or so she would have herself believe.

Meet Captain Jasmine Babasa: long, lovely, lean crime-stopping machine. A well educated career FBI agent, her squeaky clean, no-trace-left investigation skills are reserved for cases involving big money and high public profile. If only her heart and soul were so squeaky-clean. The FBI deploys her when the stakes are high, but will she discover that the only stakes that matter, the highest stakes of all, are out of this world?

Two women—so different and yet so alike—both of them
light years from fulfillment…

4.35172 light years to be exact.

—the saga of two women, the men who love them,
and the voices that beckon from another star. This is the
story of their response to a God who calls us by name,
and the forces at work to drown that call. It is a tale of
desperation and hope, of proud shame and naked
innocence: a prescription for wounded love.

Join the crew of Star Covenant.
Meet Elon, the great prophet and explorer
who longs to unite a divided world.
Can sinner and sinless coexist?

Be ready to go all the way—back to the beginning.
Lose yourself in the abyss of forgotten bliss!
