When Bob Broadhead came out to Gateway, he thought his problem was simple--wait till the mission felt right, then ship out. But watching returned prospectors scraped from the insides of their ships, falling in love, feeling his nerve dwindle--all these things changed him.
Then, years later, Robinette Broadhead, a three-mission veteran, famous & permanently rich, has to face just what happened to him & what he is...in a journey into himself as perilous & even more horrifying than the nightmare trip thru the interstellar void he finally drove himself to take!
