More DescriptionIn a stirring drama, a courageous group of colonists confronts the worst that nature--and man--can offer.
Imagine, if you will. You're part of a team clinging to life in a hostile environment. Some of your fellow adventurers, brilliant and accomplished though they may be, are showing signs of dangerously antisocial behavior. Everyone is coping with thirst, necessary shelter that feels like imprisonment, a disease outbreak, family and interpersonal crises--all exacerbated by close quarters and fear of ultimate failure.
But there's hope. Its first manifestation lies in the dogged determination with which the group begins to work through the mundane requirements of routine existence, beginning with the truth that every human organization needs to govern itself. And feed itself, protect itself, care for its young, live together in some reasonable semblance of harmony.
Hope is nourished by leaders with an unerring moral compass, possessed of humor and wisdom in the face of crushing odds, and gifted with a plan for success that seems to be working in spite of the myriad challenges. Yes, the leadership's talents are special, as in truth are those of all the carefully selected members of the expedition. Yet one among them owns abilities that stand out, and they will prove to be vital.
This is Arthur Becker's sixth novel. He is a former Navy officer, holder of graduate degrees in both electronic engineering and business administration, and presently retired from Wall Street and consulting careers. He is once and happily married, and the proud father of three children and grandfather of five.
