Endeavor is coming and Captain Gibbons will want answers.The arrival of the library ship Asimov had brought Pitcairn out of the lethargy of two hundred years of isolation. The Pitcairners used the knowledge from Asimov to build a better world, less dependent on faraway Earth.The announcement of a new ship, Endeavor, which could make the journey in months instead of years, promised a closer relationship to Earth. That should have been a reason to celebrate, but the colonists had a secret, and its revelation could endanger everything they had accomplished. A new breed of colonists would bring challenges unlike anything they had faced before.The story begun in Tau Ceti: A Ship from Earth continues.

Ambassador Edward Goldstein has made mankind's first contact with an alien race. The Kitar are friendly, but Novo Kitar is far from Earth, and some do not welcome the news.Tensions between the Western Alliance and the Eastern Bloc are increasing. For two centuries, the Western Alliance enforced peace through its monopoly on the Stenhouse technology used to power starships and provide cheap, clean energy to the world. But the Eastern Bloc has developed its own Stenhouse capability, emboldening its leaders, who see possible Kitar technology as a threat.To convince Earth's people that the Kitar are not a danger, the Western Alliance asks Ambassador Goldstein to bring two Kitar to Earth, but the situation is rapidly deteriorating.The Eastern Bloc has attacked Japan and made plans to prevent Ambassador Goldstein from returning to Earth while factions within the Western Alliance plot their own response.
