Synopsis

The Nebula-Award winning novel from the multi-award winning SF master Jack McDevitt. Also a Campbell Award finalist. Third in the acclaimed Alex Benedict series.


When Alex Benedict, interstellar dealer of antiquities, examines a seemingly unremarkable artefact, he is convinced it is from the infamous Seeker - a transport ship which fled the religious dictatorship in 27th century America. With the help of his pilot, Chase Kolpath, he follows a deadly trail to the Seeker, now strangely adrift in a system barren of habitable worlds.

But their discovery raises far more questions than it answers, drawing Alex and Chase into the very heart of danger.

Media Reviews
Jack McDevitt is that splendid rarity, a writer who is a storyteller first and a science fiction writer second. In his ability to absolutely rivet the reader, it seems to me that he is the logical heir to Isaac Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke -- Stephen King
A marvellously constructed novel. If McDevitt never writes another word, his reputation is assured * Science Fiction Chronicle *
Delivers everything it promises with a gigantic wallop * Publisher's Weekly *
Combines hard science fiction with mystery and adventure in a wild tour of the distant future. Stellar plotting, engaging characters, and a mastery of storytelling (starred review) * Library Journal *
Features personal drama as well as fast-paced action. Combines hard science fiction with superb storytelling * Library Journal *
The pleasures of a McDevitt tale lie as much in the telling as in the springing of the climax * Locus *
