More About "The Emissary":
Liv Laika departs from her life, her love, and from the aging earth in search of her ancestor's people, who fled the earth nearly a century prior. Arriving at the distant, icy gas giant, Yaghan, Liv embarks on a systematic search of any sign of her people, yet is met only by barren moons and radio silence. Day after day of isolation forces Liv to come to grips with the cost of her decision to leave the earth, when suddenly, a glimmer of hope sends Liv on a frantic journey to one last uncharted world.
