The interstellar cargo ship Auliss, its captain and crew find themselves drawn into the passage wind of two travelers with compelling purpose, into events which might very well reshape humanity's future.

Quillia, a cyber-enhanced Centrus Corrector, had spent millennia taking action to move communities and whole worlds away from chaos.  She profoundly believed in her work and was embedded so deep in duty she knew no other life.

And then there was Chance, contracted to be on the ship, apparently a child of seven but obviously a good deal more than that. She evidenced a purpose everyone on the Auliss could sense but she kept it hidden.

Encountering Chance was just the beginning. Nothing about their lives was what it seemed, and they discovered forces at play which threatened the ship, its people and even humanity itself. 

None of them could foresee all the consequences let alone the appalling price of preventing catastrophe and releasing humanity to choose its own destiny.

Their time together and their journeys from star to star form an unforgettable tale which will keep you in its grip right to the end.
