He's touring the distant fringes of human settlement to complete\nhis education.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAmy Bannock was born on the frontier, but she's been\nraised with as much gentility and culture as the environment\npermits.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYerby Bannock, Amy's brother, is a big, powerful sort who is\nalways cheeful—and most happy when he's clearing a room in a\nbrawl.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTogether the three of them are on hand to protect the raw colony\nof Greenwood from speculators—using the courts when they can and using\nbrute force when that's the only method that works.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrute force is always\nYerby's method of choice, but he's generally willing to listen to Mark and Amy\nwhen he figures they have a point.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt’s a story that sweeps from\nsprawling farms to courtrooms, from rain-sodden transfer points to luxury\nhotels. Conflict may mean a fistfight, a violent kidnapping, or tanks rolling\ndown the street side by side.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut underneath the squabbles and\nskirmishes, there's the threat of a revolution which will pit the colonies\nagainst their mother world, Earth.
