Earth is dying. Corporate and political greed have devastated the environment and depleted natural resources. To ensure humanity's survival, people must take to the stars and find new worlds to inhabit. More than two hundred years ago, dissidents from Earth escaped from an authoritarian regime by hijacking a starship and colonizing the planet Coyote. It is the last, best hope for the human race. Utilizing newly developed wormhole technology, Earth's governments plan to start transporting people between worlds near instantaneously. They're ready and willing to settle Coyote, socially, culturally, and politically. One of Coyote's original colonists, Carlos Montero, fought a revolution to prevent his home falling prey to the forces responsible for ruining Earth. To protect his people—and a civilization native to Coyote—from Earth's impending resettlement he knows he must make diplomatic alliances even as his enemies plot to overthrow the Coyote Federation.
