We do not come in peace. Hired to follow in the reckless footsteps of a madman, Ciarán mac Diarmuid and the crew of Quite Possibly Alien agree to cross the Alexandrine on their way to a shattered Earth no explorer has set eyes on in six thousand years. Tricked into taking on fugitive passengers, the ship and crew find themselves entangled in a universe-spanning web of lies centuries in the spinning. And when a hidden conflict simmering beneath the surface of the League erupts into bloody civil war their options narrow until a single path remains. Forward, into the unknown. Pursued by relentless enemies, racing toward the limits of known space, they plot a perilous course toward a solitary gateway, where a deathless enemy awaits. And where every lie will be answered, not with another lie, but with a revelation that will unite humanity. Or purge it from the stars.
