Description
Home to generations of humans, the starship Argonos has wandered aimlessly throughout the galaxy for hundreds of years, desperately searching for other signs of life. Now, a steady, unidentified transmission lures them toward a nearby planet, where the grisly remains of a former colony await the crew. Haunted by what they have seen, the crew has no choice but to follow when another signal beckons the Argonos into deep space-and into the dark heart of an alien mystery...
"[Russo] is not afraid to take on the question of evil in a divinely ordered universe...This is an ambitious novel of ideas that generates considerable suspense while respecting its sources, its characters, and most important, the reader."-The New York Times
"A tale of high adventure and personal drama in the far future."-Library Journal
"Relentlessly suspenseful...full of mystery...very exciting."-Science Fiction Chronicle
