Convicted criminal Simms finds himself imprisoned not behind bars, but within the confines of an alien technology so advanced, it’s indistinguishable from reality. Trapped on a deserted island, Simms thought he had found paradise. But little did he know, he was actually imprisoned on Mars in a simulated world created by the Vehni. As he struggles to survive and unravel the island’s mysteries, Simms must also face a journey of self-discovery and transformation.

With Simms locked away in a mind prison, after his attempt to hijack the Vehni ship in orbit, Elliot, Mei, and Dimitri embark on a new mission: a trip to Earth. Thanks to a groundbreaking Vehni medical process, humans from Mars can now withstand the harsh gravity of Earth without feeling like they are being crushed. When the three friends are framed for a UFO attack and thrown into a web of age-old extraterrestrial secrets, they must fight for their survival—and the fate of Earth.
