The Quiet Between Signals

On a long-haul relay ship that keeps a chain of remote habitats connected, a systems linguist starts finding messages hidden inside routine maintenance traffic. What looks like a clever sabotage turns into a wider problem involving a failing treaty, a missing courier, and a station population that has learned to survive by not asking the wrong questions. The ship’s crew has to decide whether keeping the network stable matters more than telling the truth.
