A fabled, earth analogue paradise or a planet facing disaster? Arcadia is the most perfect Earth Analogue world in all the Alliance - a world on which plenty are eager to settle in place of the present owners if they keep abusing their world. That's what the Galactic Alliance has threatened, and the Alliance never makes false promises. Arcadians must change how they treat their world, or they will be removed. But too many Arcadians refuse to believe the threat is real, and a band of conspirators will use any means possible to hold onto their wealth and profits, including kidnap, blackmail, maybe even assassination. The Federal Marshals ask Cumchdach den Coille to infiltrate the conspiracy and expose it. Cumchdach has known since their teens that he'd marry his beloved Anna one day. But not that conspiracies and business fraud would come between them. When Anna's father defrauds Cumchdach's family company, Anna leaves him, taking their baby. As one of the leading botanists on Arcadia, Anna den Coille specialises in how plants work together and within their ecosystem to best thrive. Work needed by her government to help fix their world. Then she is betrayed by her father, which doesn't surprise her. But Cumchdach's betrayal threatens to destroy her. Even worse, her snarled up family connections and special skills make her a target for their enemies. Can Anna and Cumchdach survive long enough to expose their enemies and save their world? As for their marriage.

Autorenporträt
Mary Brock Jones lives in Auckland, New Zealand, but loves nothing more than to escape into the other worlds in her head, to write science fiction and historical romances. Her parents introduced her to libraries and gave her a farm to play on, where trees became rocket ships and rocky outcrops were ancient fortresses. She grew up writing, filling pages of notebooks and filling her head with stories, but took a number of detours on the pathway to her dream job. For many years, she was a sedate office worker by day and a frantic scribbler by night. After four grown sons, more than one house renovated, grandchildren, a career as a government veterinarian and a farm to play on in the weekends, her wish came true and she is now writing full time.Her books have won a Fantasy, Futuristic and Paranormal Chapter of RWA Prism award, an SFR Galaxy Award and made the finals list for the Romance Writers of Australia RUBY awards, the RWNZ KORU awards, and the RWNZ Clendon awards.
