The telepathic, shapeshifting twins Murel and  Ronan found that Petaybee had plans for them as well. Now those plans begin to bear  fruit with fresh possibilities . . . and dangers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Now that Petaybee is  forming a new equatorial island, the planet has agreed to harbor a group of new refugees,  workers indentured to the powerful InterGal Corporation. But the mission to collect  the immigrants becomes a rescue operation when it is revealed that InterGal is doing  nothing to help these survivors of a world devastated by a meteor shower. Murel and  Ronan set out to persuade the frightened refugees to come out of hiding, leave their  world, and bring along their sacred totem animals, the gifted sea turtles called  the Honus. But the twins discover that they’ve taken on more than they expected:  The Honus are not the only animals sacred to the refugees. There are also the Manos,  intelligent sharks who have lost none of their predatory habits–and who cannot be  left behind to die.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e When the Manos are released into Petaybee’s waters, a tragic  misunderstanding endangers the whole resettlement operation. At the same time, the  mysterious sea otters who once rescued the twins’ father are suddenly revealed to  be much more than they appear to be.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Now it is up to Ronan and Murel, with the intrepid  assistance of their river otter friend Sky, to smooth the waters before a maelstrom  of revenge destroys Petaybee’s harmonious way of life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e But even as the twins uncover  startling new facts about Petaybee’s past that will change everything they thought  they knew about the planet, the forces of InterGal are gathering, preparing to strike.  . . .\u003c\/p\u003e\n                                    \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                                    \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAnne McCaffrey\u003c\/b\u003e, one of the world’s most popular authors, is best known for her Dragonriders of Pern® series.
