Shortcut

For fans of Andy Weir's “The Martian” and “Project Hail Mary”, from the first editor of “The Martian”. A mathematical genius. A formula that speeds up space travel called Shortcut. His loving wife. When Laura Maxx disappears after an attack that leaves Jason Maxx in the hospital, his only goal is to find her and bring her back. Then he gets a message from Voyager One: Laura is alive. In space. To get her back, he'll do whatever it takes, even taking on government agents who might try to stop him. Racing against the clock to perfect the formula and the system that relies on it, and find a suitable craft to take him out there, Jason finds he needs more than math to succeed this time.
