Ethan Rifts hates space, and yet he has joined a space faring crew of a small ship called the Hook Line to escape the troubles on his homeworld. The Hook Line crew needs an extra hand for an easy contract they took, and Ethan figures it will be worth it. They get help, and he gets away and can start over. Everyone wins. The crew heads to the distant planet of Onyx for their job, but upon arrival, they find that something has gone wrong. The space port is missing, and they get a distress signal and an encrypted signal coming from a badly damaged colony ship called Bon Voyage. Upon entering the colony ship, they find a message on a wall.
One by one we go
When it stops, we don't know
One by one we go
From that moment on, it becomes a fight for survival against an unknown alien species and psychotic survivors, and watching it all is an eccentric announcer who calls himself the Voice. He claims he can stop the aliens and help Ethan Rifts and his team, but first they have to help him. However, there is more to Bon Voyage and the Hook Line crew, and maybe the events are not so random after all.
