Space Cadet Legacy - the Long Way Home: When map is wrong, finding truth may require walking beyond it.

A routine conference becomes an unexpected test of courage, perseverance, and independent thinking. When Delta Team specialist Ashton Quinn travels to the planet Meridian to attend a prestigious navigation symposium, she expects a week of technical presentations and professional discussions. Instead, an emergency diversion leaves her stranded far from civilization. As strange inconsistencies emerge within Meridian's advanced navigation network, Ashton volunteers to investigate a forgotten beacon station that may hold the answers. Reaching it requires a dangerous sixty-mile journey across some of the planet's most remote terrain. Alone. Armed only with limited supplies, her training, and determination, Ashton must cross rugged mountains, deceptive canyons, vast wilderness, and unforgiving landscapes while uncovering a mystery decades in the making. What she finds challenges assumptions that an entire world has accepted for years. Space Cadet Legacy: The Long Way Home is a clean science fiction adventure filled with exploration, problem-solving, friendship, humor, and personal growth. Perfect for readers who enjoy character-driven science fiction, coming-of-age adventures, and stories where courage is measured not only by action-but by perseverance. The Delta Era continues. Sometimes the longest journey is the one that leads back to what can still be trusted.
