It's a simple life. Victoria spends every morning getting homeschooled by her father and every evening rewatching old black-and-white movies. Outside of that basic daily structure, however, she hasn't had too many life experiences. She's never taken a weekend, never gotten the slightest injury, and never even walked outside of her space-safe compartment-just like all the other kids living in her colony on the planet Venus.

It's a simple life. Victoria spends every morning getting homeschooled by her father and every evening rewatching old black-and-white movies. Outside of that basic daily structure, however, she hasn't had too many life experiences. She's never taken a weekend, never gotten the slightest injury, and never even walked outside of her space-safe compartment-just like all the other kids living in her colony on the planet Venus. However, that's all about to change when a dream she has of Earth causes a strange and shocking chain reaction. From an explosion that punches through a wall in her compartment and exposes her to the vacuum she's been living in, to a hole in the floor that lets her eavesdrop on her parents, to a boy attempting to make contact from Earth, the dominoes are all in place for Victoria's alien world to come crashing down around her. Hopefully, the friendship of the Zodiac Dozen will be enough to help her rebuild it. The only problems are: she doesn't have a spacesuit, doesn't have a rocket, and doesn't know of any other way to get to Earth from her front door on Venus!
