Continuing the harrowing adventures of chronman James Griffin-Mars and scientist Elise Kim across the toxic ruins of future Earth.
James and Elise have allies: Grace Priestly, the venerated inventor of time travel herself; Levin, James's mentor and former pursuer, now disgraced; and the Elfreth, a population of downtrodden humans who want desperately to believe that James and his friends will heal their ailing home world.
They also have enemies: the full military might of benighted solar system ruled by corporate greed and a desperate fear of what James will do next. The sword's point of their campaign is Kuo, the ruthless security chief, who wants James's head on a pike and will stop at nothing to get it.
