Scrimshaw

On the far side of the Moon, where daylight is a furnace and night a frozen void, Pop Young lives alone in a modest dome perched on the edge of the yawning Big Crack. Every fortnight a supply ship lands, and he ferries provisions down a long cable to a hidden mining colony while also guarding the precious ore that will be sent back to Earth. Beneath the surface, the colony’s cramped tunnels and hydroponic gardens keep a fragile community alive, but the true danger lies in the psychological strain of low‑gravity isolation.

Pop’s solitude is haunted by a deeper loss: a head wound that erased his past, including the murder of his family, and a lingering, unsettling familiarity with Sattell, the enigmatic underground supervisor. As Pop tends the shack and scours the lunar dust for clues to his former self, he must confront a mysterious connection that binds the two men together, all while the relentless environment of the Moon threatens to turn routine duty into a battle for sanity.
