Returning to the Lume, capital of the Walasian Empire, to hide, Anrel seeks refuge in The Pensioners' Quarter, a poverty-stricken den of thieves, murderers, and con men. Barely scraping out an existence, Anrel never forgets the justice he seeks or the woman he lost. When Anrel's new home is destroyed by the city guards in an unheard of show of deadly force, he has no other choice but to reveal his alter-ego to an old acquaintance, Lord Blackfield, and hope the nobleman's connections with the delegates of the Grand Council can bring the perpetrators to justice. But the persona of Alvos the Orator, hero of the people, has taken on a life of its own and many factions within the Grand Council seek a way to harness his loyal followers' political might for their own ends. Now, Anrel must navigate a spider's web of intrigue if he hopes to at last clear his name and achieve final retribution against his enemies once and for all.

Faster-than-light travel is impossible - until the discovery of the Flow, an extradimensional field available at certain points in space-time, which can take us to other planets around other stars. Riding the Flow, humanity spreads to innumerable other worlds. Earth is forgotten. A new empire arises, the Interdependency, based on the doctrine that no one human outpost can survive without the others. It's a hedge against interstellar war - and, for the empire's rulers, a system of control. The Flow is eternal - but it's not static. Just as a river changes course, the Flow changes as well. In rare cases, entire worlds have been cut off from the rest of humanity. When it's discovered that the entire Flow is moving, possibly separating all human worlds from one another forever, three individuals - a scientist, a starship captain, and the emperox of the Interdependency - must race against time to discover what, if anything, can be salvaged from an interstellar empire on the brink of collapse.
