Summary
In the year 2299, on a transport ship in deep space, three million people slept. They waited, frozen inside egg-like pods, waiting for the day they could safely wake up—the day they could go home, when Earth would be safe again.
If the systems on the ship were left unchecked—if something went wrong—for forty-eight hours, then two people were selected. Their duty: to assess the ship, find the problem, and fix it.
Wannabe-Engineer Dean Winchester and Reluctant-Medic Castiel Novak were taken out of hypersleep.
The ship's failing oxygen system meant three million humans were in danger. And that, it turned out, was the least of Dean and Castiel's worries...

Summary
Dean Winchester’s been camp manager of a science research station on the Alaskan tundra for thirteen years. Dean likes his job; fixing the camp trucks, troubleshooting the generators, keeping clueless undergrads and NSF bigwigs from walking into grizzly bears or getting lost in snowstorms — it’s all in a day’s work. It keeps him pretty busy, and this year his brother Sam's visiting too, so he's even busier. So it’s really not any of Dean’s business when some weirdo antisocial ornithologist sets up a tent a few miles away, a dark-haired blue-eyed guy who’s doing a “very long-term" study on birds or wings or something, and who never, ever takes off his big lumpy backpack. But then the new guy starts dropping by camp for coffee and... well, he’s not officially part of camp; he's not Dean’s responsibility; he’s really not Dean’s problem at all, but when a strange blizzard comes sweeping in, Dean gets worried and goes to check. Thing is, Dean's spent years in the sweeping vistas of the Arctic. He knows all about the midnight sun and the northern lights, the ice caves and avalanches, the rough-and-ready Haul Road truckers and the even rougher-and-readier wild animals. But even so, what he finds is much more than he bargained for.
