When the treaty's architect is assassinated, her protegee, Elleni, a talented renegade and one of the few able to negotiate the Barrier, is forced to take up her mantle.

Now Elleni and a motley crew of allies risk their lives to make the treaty work.

Can they repair their fractured world before the Barrier devours them completely?
