Synopsis

On Elysium, a colony of settlers is slowly expanding through the annual arrival of a colony boat from Earth. Conflict between the city of Port of Plenty and the outlying settlements begins to build when things do not proceed as planned on one Landing Day; a split-perspective narrative supplies observations from both within and outside the main civilisation as the established way of life begins to fall apart. Elysium's aboriginees form the mysterious counterpoint to the human and AI politics responsible for the civil war.

Also published in the UK as Secret Harmonies.
