They’ve made it this far. If only that increased humanity’s chances on this new planet...
Against all odds, the Ark and her thirty-thousand survivors have
reached Tau Ceti G to begin the long, arduous task of rebuilding human
civilization. Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, Tau Ceti G’s natives, the G’tel, are coming to grips with the sudden appearance of what many believe are their long-lost Gods.
But first contact between humans and g’tel goes catastrophically
wrong, visiting death on both sides. Rumors swirl that the massacre was
no accident. The Ark’s greatest hero, Bryan Benson, takes on the
mystery.
Partnered with native ‘truth-digger’ Kexx, against both of their
better judgment, Benson is thrust into the heart of an alien culture
with no idea how to tell who wants to worship him from who wants him
dead.
Together, Benson and Kexx will have to find enough common ground and
trust to uncover a plot that threatens to plunge both of their peoples
into an apocalyptic war that neither side can afford to fight.
