Summary
In the sequel to the Nebula-nominated Beholder's Eye, Esen, the sole survivor of a race of shape-shifting aliens, and her human companion, Paul, are plunged into the heart of a diplomatic nightmare that threatens to ignite insterspecies violence and reveal them to the hunters out to destroy them. Original.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Caught in a web of her own making Esen-alit-Quar had violated the First Rule of her species when she revealed her existence to a human named Paul Ragem. And though both Paul and Esen had survived, others of Esenâs Web had not been so fortunate.
Es could hardly believe that fifty years had passed since the terrifying events which had nearly cost her her life and which had forced Paul to give up everything a human treasuredâfamily, friends, even his own identityâto protect the secret of her continued survival. In that time they had built a new life together out on the Fringe.
They had a successful export company, friends and associates. Esen, now known as Esolesy Ki and wearing the form of a Lishcynâa species rare enough in the Commonwealth and never seen in the Fringeâwas perfectly content to remain on the world of Minas XII, leaving it to Paul to travel the starways on company business.
Meanwhile she used their vast information resources to search for any signs that others of her kind had found their galaxy. What neither Es nor Paul could foresee was that a simple âvacationâ trip would plunge the two of them into the heart of a diplomatic nightmareâand threaten to expose both Es and Paul to the hunters who had never been convinced of their destruction.
