Trey Jackson yearns for purpose. Burdened by guilt over his lover’s death four decades prior, the old pilot languishes in a small community fearful of exploring the planet they colonized. But he’s inspired by an optimistic teen studying native whales… and shocked when their research raft gets dragged by one of the creatures to the aliens’ shore.

But once her herbs lose their effectiveness, she desperately steers the violent man’s attention away from her home clan to plunder other islands.
When Jackson seeks Zahra’s help returning to the colony, he triggers a dangerous chain of events. And while Zahra fears her leader’s unquenchable greed and plots the unthinkable to save those she loves, she senses the tired old man could be the hero they all need…
