V.O.I.C.E. - The Silence is Over! Jacob Dekker and his partner, Jess Andersson, two of the youngest astronauts to ever man the first Mars base established by NASA and the ESA (European Space Agency) in the very near future, are busily searching for a means of accessing a subterranean basin of frozen water, when they discover a strange artifact, one that is clearly not of our world. Electrified by the discovery, NASA greenlights a closer inspection, but what occurs next, throws a curve ball into the very question, "Are we alone in the Universe?" and starts a concatenation of events beyond which there is no turning back. V.O.I.C.E. - The Silence is Over, is not only a high-concept thriller, but a speculative fiction which delves deep into the ideological and sociological paradigms of our world, where we, humanity, are challenged to reassess our cultural values; whether it is more important to walk the same road - facing the future prospect of a nuclear holocaust at the hands of global dictators, or, a future where the distant stars and the very secrets of the Universe are no longer beyond our reach.
