Maya Ellison thought the hardest thing she would ever face was watching people die. After a painful divorce and years spent as a hospice nurse, she accepts a three-month assignment aboard The Oasis, a deep-space research vessel traveling far beyond Earth. Her patient is Dr. Elias Vance, a brilliant astrophysicist living out what he believes are the final months of his life after a terminal cancer diagnosis. Elias has spent years pushing people away. Maya has learned to guard her heart. Neither expects the quiet connection that begins to form between them beneath an endless sea of stars. Elias's illness doesn't behave like cancer. The deeper she investigates, the more disturbing the truth becomes. Hidden beneath medical records, buried family secrets, and a decades-old scientific mystery, lies a conspiracy tied to a forgotten interstellar signal, one that has already destroyed lives, and fueled a dangerous obsession. How far is she willing to go to save the man she loves... when he still trusts the person destroying him?

The Stars Between Us Her Mother's Grave
Chapter Twenty-Three: Her Mother's Grave The documents were thinner than she expected.Maya had spent weeks preparing for this moment.The assessments, the waiting, the uncertainty that had settled into her chest and refused to leave.She had imagined signing the final papers would feel monumental, you know, like a door opening, a new life beginning.Instead, she sat in a quiet office at the London facility, a pen in her hand, and signed her name on three pages. The ink was black. The signature was steady."Congratulations, Ms. Ellison," the coordinator said. "You're officially part of the Oasis mission. Your reporting date is in two weeks. You'll receive your full briefing packet within the next few days."Maya set down the pen. "That's it?""That's it."She looked at the papers. Her name. The mission designation. The dates that marked the beginning of something she still didn't fully understand. But wanted.It suddenly became real. She was chosen. She wanted to laugh, but all she c

Chapter Twenty-Two: The ExceptionThe call came on a Thursday afternoon.Elias was in his office, staring at the same page of calculations for nearly an hour without registering a single equation.His mind kept circling back to the facility. The doctor's careful questions. The possibility that had taken root in his chest and refused to leave.His phone buzzed. Unknown number.He answered."Mr. Vance. This is the medical administration office for the Oasis mission. I'm calling to update you on the status of your clearance."Elias sat up straighter. "Go on.""Your medical clearance has been placed on hold pending senior review. A higher-level medical committee will evaluate your case before a final decision is made."He felt something cold settle in his stomach. "When will I receive a decision?""I can't say with certainty. The committee meets irregularly. You'll be notified once a determination has been reached.""That's not an answer.""I understand your frustration, Mr. Vance. But yo

Chapter Twenty-One: Finding company The facility looked different the second time.Maya had noticed it the moment she stepped through the entrance. The same glass-and-steel structure, the same security checkpoints, the same particular silence of a place that handled things it didn't discuss.But the atmosphere had shifted. The first time, she had been one of many. A candidate among candidates, moving through the same process as everyone else.This time, she was escorted to a different section of the building. Fewer people. Quieter corridors. The kind of space that suggested the process had narrowed considerably since her first visit.She was asked to wait in a small room with comfortable chairs and a window that looked out onto an interior courtyard.She sat and watched the light move across the glass and wondered how many candidates were left. How many had made it to this stage. How many would make it through.She didn't have long to dwell on it.The door opened.---The woman who e

Chapter Twenty: The FlagThe facility was exactly as Elias had imagined it would be. Glass and steel. Security checkpoints. The particular silence of a place where people were evaluated rather than welcomed.He had delayed this appointment for three weeks. First because he had been too tired. Then because he had been too busy. Then because he had simply not wanted to come, to submit himself to the same process he had watched other people go through.The staff at the reception desk did not hide their irritation."Mr. Vance, you're late.""I'm aware.""You rescheduled three times.""I'm aware of that too."The woman behind the desk gave him a look that suggested she had encountered his type before. The type who thought rules applied to other people. She handed him a temporary identification badge and directed him toward the medical wing without further comment.Elias clipped the badge to his jacket and walked away.---The medical examination began with ordinary things. Blood pressure.
