Publisher's Synopsis
"Sci-Fi with substance." At a research lab on a distant planet, a devastating accident signals the end of a technological impasse that has stalled Anye civilization at the edge of space for a thousand years. Protected in a vault, instruments reveal the true nature of space, time, and matter.
The event has set physicist Rivan Saraf on a path that could take his people beyond reach of a dying star. But a hostile foreign government has agents in town. The Vanya are brutal, remorseless -- here to spy, steal, kidnap and murder. And Rivan is on their list.
