In THIS SKY WE COULD NOT KEEP, Dr. Rae Wolf and her wife, Rose, dedicated scientists, race against time to prevent a catastrophic Kessler Syndrome event—a scenario where escalating collisions in Earth’s orbit create a self-perpetuating debris field, rendering space activities perilous. Her mission is to avert a global crisis that could cripple communication, navigation, and surveillance systems.

As the debris cloud intensifies, humanity faces an unprecedented challenge. Satellites are destroyed, plunging the world into darkness and forcing societies to revert to pre-electricity technologies. In this new era, communities must adapt, relying on traditional skills and resources to rebuild their lives.

This novel delves into themes of resilience, adaptation, and the human spirit’s capacity to endure in the face of unforeseen challenges. It explores the fragility of civilization and the profound impact of technological dependence on human progress. Cut off from each other, Rose and Rae must do everything possible to find their way back to each other.

Through their journey, readers are invited to reflect on the delicate balance between technological advancement and environmental stewardship. THIS SKY WE COULD NOT KEEP serves as a cautionary tale about the potential consequences of neglecting the sustainability of our technological infrastructure.

THIS SKY WE COULD NOT KEEP is a thought-provoking exploration of humanity’s future, urging readers to consider the long-term implications of our actions in space and their potential to reshape life on Earth.

When estranged sisters Sylvia, Grace, and Caroline are forced to reunite following their mother Marian’s mysterious disappearance, old wounds resurface, and buried secrets claw their way to the surface.

As the sisters unravel their family’s troubled past, they uncover a chilling connection between their mother’s work as a biologist, their father’s history of abuse, and the inexplicable phenomena threatening humanity’s existence. Faced with mounting terror and their own deeply ingrained pain, they must confront not only their shared trauma but also a horrifying evolutionary truth that binds them in ways they never imagined.
