The \u003ci\u003eMeridian\u003c\/i\u003e vanished forty years ago without a trace, yet its hull is pristine, its systems alive-and its distress beacon still pulsing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut once aboard, the salvage team discovers there are no bodies. Only echoes. Half-eaten meals, unfinished logs... and voices. Their own voices. The ship plays back their conversations before they happen, exposes their secrets, and whispers their fears aloud. Time itself is twisted here, looping back on itself, tightening like a noose.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs paranoia mounts and hallucinations blur into reality, the crew begins to unravel. Each member is haunted by visions only they can see-ghosts of dead loved ones, sins they can't escape, futures they can't change. And the recordings grow louder, replaying not only the past but their inevitable deaths.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCaught in a trap outside time, Rourke and his crew must face a chilling truth: the \u003ci\u003eMeridian\u003c\/i\u003e doesn't just want them aboard.
