We’re stoked to announce that S.K. Vaughn’s ACROSS THE VOID, our upcoming title from our esteemed Books division, has entered into development with Universal Pictures!
Commander Maryam “May” Knox wakes alone on board a ruined craft. Her crew is missing, her memory is fragged, and the ship seems moments from breaking apart completely. As she works feverishly to save the vessel and set course for Earth, her memories come back in pieces, detailing not only the grizzly events on board, but of her rocky relationship with her husband Stephen. Back on Earth, said husband is the mission commander at NASA and the only one who can help May return home safely, despite their marital difficulties. Will May—and her marriage—survive in this harrowing story of space survival and true love?
