It is 2275, and the Correctionist Reformist Imperium rules a war-torn and ravaged Earth. Condemned for resisting the slaughter of the last fir trees in the North Territories, Julianna Hart, a feisty and courageous sixty-one-year old activist and astronaut is sent on a one-way Deep Delve mission to a distant galaxy. Alone in an ancient spaceship without communication or flight controls, Julianna is headed for Noreusa, an unexplored planet her ship is programmed to conquer and exploit.
Separated from all she loves, Captain Spacehart leaves behind her long time partner, Pharthy, her close friend Sahma, and two adult sons-as well as memories of her deceased half-alien daughter, born in prison when she was barely eighteen. Impetuous and passionate, with a weakness for aliens, Spacehart is determined to foil her mission and return to Earth. But her plans change when she realizes an alien craft is stalking her waiting to attack. Alone in her tiny, unarmed ship, Spacehart knows there is no escape. Quickly outnumbered, she is captured and imprisoned on dwarf planet Visanak, where she must face a plethora of new challenges.
In this science fi ction, adventure, and love story, Spacehart must decide whether to stay on a nearly idyllic planet where All is One or attempt a perilous return to a possibly dying Earth.
