An act of desperation.
Veronica Logan's teleportation project is on the verge of losing its funding, and she fears her husband has strayed from her. Without caring about the results or if she'd even survive, she enters the departure pod and disappears.
Something happens while her signal is transmitting, and only a fraction of her mass reappears at the arrival pod. Alive but incomplete, she asks her team to hide the accident from her husband while they try retrieving her missing matter still stored in the computer's memory. However, Veronica's colleagues have other motives which may make her condition permanent and unleash a darker, bigger threat.
To measure up to the woman she once was, Veronica must reassess her career and reconcile with her husband. Only she can clear her conscience, but she might be her own worst enemy.
