The Harkens

Details

On Harken, a world perpetually scoured by twin suns and plunged into freezing darkness by dual eclipses, every 32-hour day is a brutal test of survival. Xenobiologist Alexis, gentle yet resilient, awakens marooned amidst its towering tropical forests, her advanced self-defense and critical thought her only allies. The planet's unique mechanics dictate a relentless 20-hour scramble for resources before a deadly 12-hour freeze descends. But Alexis isn't alone. She's trapped with a disparate group of formidable, enigmatic male survivors, each harboring secrets and vying for control. As strange, bioluminescent flora offer false hope and predatory fauna stalk the shadows, Alexis must unravel the mysteries of Harken and its inhabitants, or succumb to its alien embrace. Her only path to survival lies in understanding a world that seems designed to break her, all while navigating dangerous alliances and the primal struggle for life.
