Smuggle the "reborn" spiritual leader of an oppressed people past their conquerors. What could go wrong?Solitary spacejock Landry Krieger ekes out a living transporting data through the galaxy-and smuggling people past the watchful eyes of governments, in hiding places he builds in his ship. When the priests of Tao Pacem ask for his help, Landry resists. Dow patch'em? Yin-yang symbols? A plan to sneak a young boy, the "reincarnation" of their spiritual leader, to their conquered homeworld to spark a rebellion?After earlier experiences with religious leaders, he needs far more than the big payday they offer to say yes. He gets it when an arrogant agent of the oppressors tries to scare him off the job. But during a month-long interstellar journey, what starts as just another hustle gets complicated. The oppressors track Landry's ship. His personality clashes with the priests..and meshes with the boy's beautiful young governess. Fail in his mission, and not only his passengers will suffer. Millions of innocent people will remain in bondage. Then Landry finds evidence one of his passengers is a saboteur and spy.
