On the Loop by J.D. Robinson

How can 30 crew members just vanish into thin air?

One last month in paradise before an 8,000-year journey. That’s what the Company had promised before whisking Alina Andra and her entire crew of 500 to tropical Tilulipu, where it had built a luxurious resort just for the occasion.

Only the rooms of the entire executive team now stand empty, and Alina’s crewmates turn to her to make sense of their predicament. So why have a handful of her more dubious colleagues decided that the mass disappearance is part of an outlandish plot? And why have they named Alina as a co-conspirator?

Now thrust into a less glamorous spotlight, Alina heads a search for the truth. But while the answer she discovers may explain the missing crew members, it may also put Earth’s first crewed extrasolar mission in jeopardy.

If you like the trapped-in-paradise thrill of Lost, and the otherworldly wonder of Contact, you’ll love J.D. Robinson’s mind-bending science fiction adventure.

“Starts out as a classic page-turner mystery, and slowly morphs into something much more.” – Brujaja, reviewer
