Four hundred years before humanity returned to the Moon, someone had already been there.
February 17, 2052.
Dr. Mara Vance and a United Earth Alliance survey team are searching the far side of the Moon for something ordinary: water.
Instead, beneath the ancient dust of Daedalus Crater, their instruments detect something impossible.
Straight lines.
Perfect angles.
A structure nearly half a mile long.
Buried beneath the lunar surface is an enormous vessel of brass, copper, iron, glass, and machinery-built with craftsmanship that belongs to another age. Its hull resembles something imagined by Jules Verne rather than constructed by modern engineers.
Then the team uncovers a plaque:
PROVIDENCE
PORTSMOUTH
ANNO DOMINI 1627
History says no human being reached the Moon until centuries later.
History is wrong.
As Mara and her team enter the vessel, they discover that Providence is far more than an impossible seventeenth-century spacecraft. Its crew traveled somewhere humanity has never been. Something happened to them there. And hidden within the ship is a technology that challenges everything we understand about distance, time, and humanity's place in the universe.
But Providence did not end up buried on the far side of the Moon by accident.
Someone put it there.
And whatever its captain was trying to keep from reaching Earth may have finally found the way home.
Providence Unearthed is Book One of The Road to Providence, a science-fiction mystery and adventure blending lunar exploration, lost history, archaeological discovery, first contact, and Jules Verne-inspired retrofuturism into a journey that begins beneath the surface of the Moon-and leads somewhere far beyond it.
Some secrets should have stayed buried.
