In 2015, Intelligence Analyst Caine Riordan uncovered a conspiracy on the Moon, leading to his involuntary cryocellation. Twelve years later, he wakes up to a changed world, where humanity has achieved faster-than-light travel and is exploring neighboring star systems. Riordan is compelled to become an inadvertent agent of conspiracy, investigating whether a primitive local species was once sentient and capable of building a lost civilization.
However, his mission in the Delta Pavonis system is not as straightforward as he had anticipated. He soon discovers that assassins and saboteurs are following him, making it clear that someone does not want his mission to succeed. As he delves deeper into the mystery, he realizes that humanity is not alone in the cosmos and is being dragged into an impending struggle for interstellar dominance. Earth is revealed to be the lynchpin planet in this struggle, and Riordan must convince the powers-that-be that the only way for humanity to survive as a free species is to face the perils directly and fight fire with fire.
Riordan must navigate through new dangers and challenges as he travels to the newly settled world, encountering alien species, advanced technology, and treacherous political landscapes. Along the way, he must also confront his own doubts and fears, as he questions whether he is truly capable of becoming the agent of change he has been destined to be.
In the end, Riordan emerges as a hero, using his intelligence and instincts to uncover the truth and save humanity from the impending threat. His journey is a testament to the power of perseverance, determination, and the human spirit to overcome even the greatest challenges.
