Mission Critical: Journey to the Red Planet

On Mars, blood is the same color as dirt. And dirt can hide an awful lot of sins.


When Allison Jiang wins a ticket to be a reality show contestant on the first manned trip to Mars, she’s certain all her dreams have come true. As she steps into the rust bucket spaceship complete with flashing lights and televised social media centers, she suddenly realizes this isn’t quite her dream; but then fear and anxiety are what the drugs in the sleeping compartments are for. In the high-stakes game of reality show TV where never-ending drama is a requirement, it’s possible to pay the ultimate price. Be careful what you wish for. Fame never comes without a cost.
