Hoping to take possession of a new alien starhopping portal, Roarke and Selene are tasked with transporting an assassin, who is herself being targeted.For years Gregory Roarke and his Kadolian partner Selene worked as crocketts, combing through the atmospheres of uninhabited worlds for places that might be colonized or hold valuable resources. Now, they work for the Icarus Group, a topsecret government organization hunting for portals created by a longvanished alien race, portals that can teleport a person hundreds or thousands of lightyears in the blink of an eye.Usually, those hunts are long and tedious.
