Gypsy Rider

Humanity is putting a man on Mars. There’s only one catch: there’s no coming back.

Psychologist Rebecca Maddis is entrusted with a vital task—finding the perfect candidate who can undertake the grueling months-long mission to the Red Planet.
Sam Austin is the perfect candidate. The former marine-turned geophysicist checks all of Rebecca’s boxes. But Sam is carrying hidden scars—and the overwhelming stress and isolation of a deep space mission is enough to drive even the toughest soldier to the breaking point.
Amid the whirlwind of a relentless media storm and the months of arduous preparation leading up to the unprecedented mission, Sam and Rebecca find themselves growing closer... but Sam’s journey is a one-way trip, and they both know that letting down their guard could compromise everything.
And when disaster strikes thousands of miles from home, Rebecca is faced with an impossible choice: abandon the mission, or take drastic action to save Sam’s life...
