begins. But outside, the relentless and deep cold of the Martian

Empire have constructed bases on Mars. They are separated by over
a thousand kilometers of Martian desert,

the most hostile
place any humans have ever dared to settle. Their lives depend on
constant resupply from earth even while they work day and night to develop
independent, regenerating life support systems. But when the line
of communications with the earth goes dead - permanently - they are forced
to come to grips with the horrifying realization that they are on their
own and there is not enough to go around. For the human race to survive,
a lot of people are going to have to die...
