BEASTS IN THE GARDEN by C. Gockel

When John Miller volunteers for the rescue mission to the Proxima Centauri outpost, he expects to find his former lover, Hana—the brilliant physicist behind near-light engines—dead.

Instead, he discovers the outpost largely destroyed and Hana nowhere to be found. While the team whispers suicide, John knows Hana would never surrender so easily.

Their relationship was always an accident of proximity and convenience, two very different people thrown together. But when John uncovers her daring attempt to return to Earth in a risky, experimental faster-than-light vessel, he has no choice but to follow her.

Yet it’s not just Hana’s destination that shocks him—it’s what awaits them there. With their vessels damaged and survival hanging by a thread, John and Hana must rebuild the basics of civilization from scratch. In a world where untreated water or a simple cut can be fatal, and four-legged predators prowl the forests, the greatest dangers they face are almost human.
