Veritas

Eight hundred years into humanity's future and the ties of blood are just as strong as ever. On her maiden voyage into deep space, the Wryneck, a prototype starship, was destroyed after her captain gave the order to self-destruct. Three decades later, Tiberius MacAlpin, the son of the Wryneck's captain, is haunted by dreams that seem to show him what happened to his father's ship. A new ship. A new mission. The same desire for answers. Tiberius has always believed his father was not in the wrong to act as he did, and is determined to clear his name, whatever it takes-even if it means uncovering long-held secrets borne by those who were close friends. Is it so wrong for a son to believe his father's innocence until he uncovers the truth?
