Chapter 1: Introduction
"Kara, darling, you look like something the cat dragged in." Her boss, Sarah, said with a wry eye-roll, leaning against the door frame. Sarah had been working at NASA for some twenty years, and of all the people Kara knew, she was the least flappable. They weren't exactly friends, but there was a sense of respect between them that had formed over the years as they occasionally found themselves assignment partners.
Sarah's blonde hair was disheveled from her late meeting, and though it was already late into the evening she didn't seem to mind.

Sarah laughed.
