Chris "Crash" Williams leads an international crew to investigate the appearance of this ghost ship, but he quickly learns that the spacecraft isn't as dead as it seems.

Das UN-Kriegsschiff Magellan ist zwölf Lichtjahre von der Erde entfernt und erforscht ein sogenanntes kaltes Auge, eine gezeitenstarre Supererde namens Bee. Mindestens zwei fortschrittliche, intelligente Spezies haben sich auf dem Planeten entwickelt, aber die Versuche der Crew, über Funk zu kommunizieren, ergeben nur verstümmelte Antworten, und in der Umlaufbahn wartet, anders als versprochen, auch niemand auf sie. Die Besatzung muss herausfinden, warum. Aber das ist heikel, denn jegliche Missverständnisse könnten zum Krieg führen.
