About This Book

A lone interplanetary pilot, a neo-Terran freighter captain named Nathaniel Drake, detours near an off-limits world and encounters a woman claiming to be Saint Annabelle Leigh seeking to witness a prophesied resurrection. As he weighs her offers of payment and intimate favors to smuggle her ashore, his motives and legends about his own search for redemption are reframed around bitterness rather than love. The plot tracks their tense negotiation and the hazards of violating interstellar codes, while exploring themes of religious fervor, personal obsession, and the isolation of spacefaring life. It culminates in a confrontation between skepticism and the lure of miraculous belief.
