Robinson again takes a look at his Californian setting, this time in a community that is environmentally focused, and has limited development and economic expansion.

The book's conflict come as one of the members of this community tries to get around their rules and laws for financial gain, another opposes him, and a woman is caught in the middle, being the ex-lover of the rulebreaker, and current interest of the community upholder.
