At eighty-three, Dr. Helen Failia is nearing middle age but has lost none of her fighting spirit. The founder of EarthÂ’s first fully functioning colony on Venus, she will do anything to ensure that the home sheÂ’s built and nurtured not only survives, but thrives. Despite her constant work, funding for the colony is running out, and sheÂ’s dreading telling the ten thousand colonists they must move to Earth, a world some of them have never even seen. When one of her probes returns with the unprecedented proof of an ancient alien artifact on the surface of Venus she cannot believe her luck. This is the first evidence that humanity is not alone, and the discovery will surely secure the research colonyÂ’s future.
