The book begins with two worlds at war in the same solar system. A pair of individuals from both adversary planets flee to earth for protection from their own orbiting spheres with thoughts of revenge against each other. The story follows their tribulations on how they try to adapt to their new and strange environs. Conflict from these two planets manifests itself on earth and a struggle ensues. This quarrel ends up to be a deadly endeavor which is unknown to all on earth except for one man who is, for various reasons, very invested in finding the aliens. There are six principle characters that fill the story with intrigue and put into words the direction of the novel. The resolution of the struggle between the aliens is in doubt to the very end.
