On the twin colony planets Sainte Anne and Sainte Croix, civilization is a colorful mix of the archaic and the futuristic, with slavery and advanced science coexisting. The shapeshifting alien inhabitants of Sainte Anne were exterminated by the colonists - but some believe that instead they killed the humans and adopted their identity. In three interlocking tales, the secrets of this strange society are gradually unravelled.
