Galen is the retired Governor of Marsat, an artificial colony. Samara is the daughter of the Director of Continental Lloyd Corporation, one of Earth's largest companies. A chance meeting in Galen's old house propels them into a crucible of political intrigue and death as Samara has to become Director when her mother is assassinated.

As with all H.M Hoover's works, this is well written, believable and exciting. The relationship between Galen and Samara is touching and sweet, without becoming cloying. The future that Hoover paints is calm but with hints of underlying trouble. I would recommend this book to any fans of H.M Hoover's other works and to anyone who has not encountered her before.

This is a kind of mysterious story. A certain scientist leave the Earth 2029 during 8 years, but he come back to the earth at 2129. When he arrive at the Earth, many things surprise him...
I found it very interesting. My only criticism is that it's too short!
