War is coming, and it is to be fought with the fundamental forces of physical law. The long era of peace and prosperity is at an end. The once unifying forces of the University and the Code of Law are disintegrating, and in the midst of the rising chaos one question demands an answer. Who is Kassad Mir? For in the hundred thousand galaxies it is easy for an individual to lose themselves, but trouble always seems to find Kassad Mir. Aboard a new Sabha, accompanied by his faithful canine companion Canis, and with the consequences of his actions closing in around him Kassad Mir must answer the question of who he really is before someone else decides for him. Kassad's quest for identity will take him from friendly ports to the fringe of civilization, immerse him in political intrigue, pit him against ruthless assassins, and ultimately lead him to the heart of a mystery that spans the length and breadth of Laniakea. Legitimate tramp merchant or pirate and smuggler? Self made man or product of University manipulation? Hero or villain?
