What terrible secrets will Tyler Matthews and his star lawyers discover within the forbidden sanctuary on the mysterious, sacred planet Adao-2? Can the legal team from Matthews Interstellar Industries learn the truth in time to save M-double-I’s century-long quest to open Jump Gate Omega, bridge the 2.5 million light years to the Andromeda galaxy, and prevent economic ruin and war in the Milky Way?

If the new Matthews Corporation Jump Gate fails to span 2.5 million light years to the Andromeda galaxy, the heavily invested star-faring civilization of the Milky Way will face economic ruin and brutal war. The Star Lawyers must run a gauntlet to the Rim, dodging pirates, politicians, prelates, and predatory star nations intent on seizing the new Gate to Andromeda.

Round up the unusual suspects—alien and human—from cultures across the galaxy, because Shepherd's stories sizzle with action, romance, and humor. There's also a shape-shifter cat and a pleasure house starship full of holographic whores reprogrammed as ship's crew and legal assistants. Prepare for vivid glimpses into alien cultures, legal systems, and religions, and the political intrigues driving the events.
