Good is a construct. Evil is a virus. The Starship Sa Niro and the Starship S> Oubliette were in orbit around a black hole, one afternoon – by the end of the day, the crews of both starships were dead, victims of a single killer: Captain Alpha Raine. Raine claims he’s acting under the command of a voice emanating from the black hole: Mr Modo. No one believes him. Everyone knows that things go into black holes; nothing comes out. But something inexplicable has been happening to Raine, and whatever it is seems to be spreading. An historian studying serial killers from the 21st century interviews him – and then nearly kills someone herself. It becomes increasingly undeniable that there’s something inside that black hole – and it’s found a way out.
