Moon 44

In the bleak year 2038, humanity claws at the edges of a dying Earth, turning its gaze to the far‑flung outposts of the Outer Zone. Among them, Moon 44 hangs like a rust‑scarred lantern in the void, a vital fuel‑mining facility caught between corporate ambition and the ever‑looming scarcity of resources. The atmosphere is cold and unforgiving, a mix of metallic clangs and the low hum of mining shuttles, while the distant stars remind everyone that survival here is as fragile as a breath in vacuum.

Enter Felix Stone, a lone detective whose reputation for uncovering hidden truths has brought him to this isolated stronghold. Stationed far from the bustling hubs of the galaxy, he finds himself tasked with keeping order amid a delicate balance of power, dwindling supplies, and the ever‑present threat of corporate intrigue. The outpost’s routine is disrupted when a contingent of convicts is unexpectedly assigned to assist him, adding an uneasy layer of tension to an already precarious existence.

The world of Moon 44 is rendered in stark, gritty detail—a place where every tunnel echoes with the weight of human desperation, and every decision can tilt the fragile equilibrium between life and ruin. Against this backdrop, Tyler—the chief navigator—offers a steady, pragmatic counterpoint to Stone’s relentless curiosity, while Major Lee and his aide Sykes hint at deeper undercurrents of command and control. The tone is one of simmering suspense, blending the cold, mechanical rhythm of a mining colony with the uneasy human drama of those daring to survive in its shadows, leaving the detective to navigate both the physical dangers of the lunar landscape and the unseen machinations that hover just beyond the reach of the station’s dim lights.
