He thought Alaina loved him, but now she’s found someone else.
A tidal wave of loss and grief swept over Henry Gallant,
leaving him undecided about what to do next, or how to move forward.
Despite his sorrow, he goes on a dangerous mission to an invading aliens’
home world in the Gliese-581 star system. There he uses a neural interface
to penetrate their communication network and steal a high ranking alien’s identity.
Through this artifice he learns about their history and society,
and discovers a way to hinder and possibly defeat them.
A side-effect of linking into the alien network—which was created
for autistic savants—is that Gallant’s mind was stimulated and enhanced to the point
where he begins to experience superintelligence abilities.
Upon returning from his mission, there is concern that Gallant might pose an
even more serious threat than the aliens. While he struggles
to fend off those who doubt his loyalty, he fights to win back Alaina.
