Twisted Light

A beam of twisted light is due to return to Earth after being in space for five decades. The light beam is encoded with data the government wants to keep secret. Most of the astrophysicists who encoded the light beam fifty years ago are dead, and now the scientists who have been preparing to capture the light beam and recover the data have died in unexplained accidents.

Brianna, a twenty-one-year-old graduate, learns on the day of her parent’s funeral that she will need to take her father’s place and capture the light beam and distribute its data. Brianna is unprepared and afraid, but she must overcome her fears and her grief. A small group will help Brianna, but all of them are at risk of being discovered, so they must learn how to run and how to hide.
