Synopsis "Occupy Mars"

One hundred and twenty-six people bought a new life on Mars. Scott Mercer built them a place to believe it. Scott’s plan was ambitious enough: turn an old Texas warehouse into a convincing Mars experience. Then his website sold one-way tickets to the real thing. The money is gone. The passengers are coming. And the people financing Scott’s dream are not interested in refunds. So he gives his colonists a red horizon, a settlement to build, and a story he cannot afford to stop telling. They arrive carrying grief, ambition, difficult marriages, and the stubborn hope that somewhere else they might become somebody new. But a colony is more than scenery. Strangers become neighbors. People who felt useless on Earth discover that someone needs them. Inside a manufactured world, something real begins to grow. And every friendship, every small victory, every reason to stay raises the price of the truth. As the deception becomes harder to contain, Scott must confront what he has created—and what keeping it alive is turning him into. Warm, darkly funny, and increasingly tense, Occupy Mars is an illustrated science-fiction novel about second chances, belonging, and the dangerous distance between selling people a dream and deciding their lives for them.
