Before the signal reached Titan, before Elena Voss uncovered the truth, one woman heard the universe calling her name.
Dr. Sarah Voss has spent her life listening for proof that humanity is not alone. Buried deep inside corrupted data from Proxima Centauri, she finds something no one else can see: a pattern, a voice, and an impossible intelligence waiting beyond the stars.
At first, the signal seems like a miracle.
Then it says her daughter's name.
As Sarah is drawn deeper into the mystery, the Solar Defense Initiative moves to control the discovery, and Admiral Chen Zhao reveals the existence of the Horizon - humanity's first faster-than-light expedition. Officially, the mission is exploration. In truth, it is a journey toward a gate no one fully understands.
Commander Nathan Hale does not trust the mission. Chen wants control. Sarah wants answers. But the entity beyond Proxima wants something far more dangerous:
Permission.
Leaving behind her husband and fifteen-year-old daughter, Elena, Sarah joins the Horizon and crosses into the unknown. What waits there is not simply alien. It is ancient, lonely, and powerful enough to fracture time itself.
And when the threshold begins to open, Sarah must make a choice that will define humanity's future - and haunt her daughter for decades.
The Signal Before the Stars is the gripping prequel to The Signal Beneath the Stars, revealing the doomed Horizon mission, the truth behind Sarah Voss's sacrifice, and the first warning sent across broken time.
