"In four years, aerospace giant Prime Space will put the first humans on Mars. Helen Kane, Yoshihiro Tanaka, and Sergei Kuznetsov must prove they're the crew for the historic voyage by first spending seventeen months in the most realistic simulation ever created. Retired from NASA, Helen never trained for irrelevance and longs to return to the only place she ever truly felt at home: sapce. For Yoshi, it's an opportunity to prove himself worthy of the complicated wife he has loved absolutely, if not quite rightly. Sergei is willing to spend seventeen months in a tin can if it means eventually travelling to Mars. Constantly observed by Prime Space's team of 'Obbers,' Helen, Yoshi, and Sergei must appear ever in control. But as their surreal pantomime progresses, each soon realizes that the complications of inner space are no less fraught than those of outer space. The borders between what is real and unreal begin to blur, and each astronaut is forced to confront demons past and present, even as they struggle to navigate their increasingly claustrophobic quarters--and one another."--
