About the Book
The fires are out, but the trouble’s just beginning for the treecats
On pioneer planet Sphinx, ruined lands and the approach of winter force the now Landless Clan to seek new territory. They have one big
problem — there’s nowhere to go. Worse, their efforts to find a new home
awaken the enmity of the closest treecat clan — a stronger group who’s not giving up a single branch without a fight.
Stephanie
Harrington, the treecats’ greatest advocate, is off to Manticore for
extensive training — and up to her ears in challenges there. That leaves
only Stephanie’s best friends, Jessica and Anders, to save the treecats
from themselves. And now a group of xenoanthropologists is once again
after the great secret of the treecats — that they are intelligent,
empathic telepaths — and their agenda will lead to nothing less that
treecat exploitation.
Finally, Jessica and Anders face problems of their own, including their growing attraction to one another. It is
an attraction that seems a betrayal of Stephanie Harrington, the best
friend either of them have ever had.
