'Captain Kevin Rebel is trapped by someone he thought he left behind in a space station incubator. Only when it's too late does he realise the question of who escaped is still in the mind of a master computer, and Kevin will need all his cunning to win the game of survival. Piq, mute girl, secret agent, is faced with a choice: either to find a friend, a boy from her past, or follow her orders. Elo, boy scientist, artist of prophetic dreams, processor of the sixth sense, is given his greatest wish: to return to his native world and find his sister, now sharing an unknown fate with the rest of the population when the planet was destroyed.'
