Twenty years after the Devastation described in Green Blood Rising, the Metchosin clan votes 15 to 14 to allow an exchange student, Erik, to devote all his time trying to harness electricity produced by the trees to recreate “civilization.” Spider, daughter of a clan leader, falls in love with Erik. When a close friend of Spider’s is found murdered, the clan soon discovers the culprit.
The crucial question is what kind of justice can be meted out to punish this individual and protect the fragile community without incurring guilt? There are no police, law courts or jails in this fledgling new world. Will these become necessary? And if so, will this lead to history repeating itself?
The clan must answer these questions fast, before the culprit escapes and kills again.
