Proof

by Gary Lonesborough 

A black background with white specs has 4 worms in each corner. In the middle is a spotty blueish splodge with some black shapes inside.
Tanner has been noticing that lots of people in his town on the lunar outpost on Callisto are getting sick. What is causing this mysterious illness plaguing his community? Tanner’s sister Rachel thinks she knows what’s causing it and takes Tanner on an eye-opening adventure where they discover a lot more than just the cause of the illness. Proof explores filtration, waste management and environmental science.
