Summary

Summary

A SCIENCE FICTION TALE OF GLOBAL WARFARE AND THE PEOPLE WHO PROFIT FROM IT.

The world has been divided by the Barrier. For one hundred and fifteen years this extraterrestrial, epi-dimensional entity has divided the Earth into warring zones. Power-hungry politicians, gangsters, and spiritual fundamentalists are determined to thwart a potential treaty to end the internal wars.

When the treaty’s architect is assassinated, her protégée, 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?

“Blends speculative science with socially aware fiction to create a panoramic story that is at once personally relevant and philosophically significant.”Library Journal
