About This Book

A routine inspection of a rocket tube uncovers a plate composed of an unknown element, triggering an intelligence inquiry that links the material to a ship which journeyed beyond the system’s last outposts. Analysis reveals that explorers returned from that region have been replaced by near-identical individuals whose tissues contain foreign elements, suggesting deliberate alteration by an outside intelligence. An investigator pieces together these clues and undertakes a lone, hazardous voyage past the claimed boundaries of human space to confront a distant, hostile world and to determine the origin and purpose of the strange substance and the beings associated with it.
