Along with his Callirhoan friend and crewmate Torgo, Tristain Varix, one of the last of the human race, flies across the galaxy as a surveyor for KoloaCorp. But when a Kemettha named Kakuet approaches him in a starport bar and makes him an offer he can't refuse, things take a hazardous turn. Varix is tasked with finding the lost planet Earth so that Kakuet can recover the property of his employer. But when that property turns out to be an escaped slave, Tristain and Torgo intervene to try to warn the slave that Kakuet is coming. They meet Nephthesit, and she tells them a tale of betrayal that leads right to the doorstep of Kakuet and his employer. Hidden in a vault somewhere beneath the former site of the library of Alexandria is a scarab which is said to grant visions to those who seek the truth, and Nephthesit will have that scarab to see that justice is done. Join the rousing adventure as Tristain, Torgo, and Nephthesit attempt to recover the scarab and escape from right under the noses of Kakuet and the Pharoanic Guard.
