Some centuries from now the exploration & exploitation of the Solar System is in full swing. On the cold edge of the system Bella Lind captain of the huge commercial spacecraft Rockhopper IV helps fuel this new gold rush by attaching mass-driver motors to organic-rich water-ice comets to move them back to the inner worlds. Her crew are tough blue-collar miners engineers & demolition experts. Around Saturn something inexplicable happens: one of the moons leaves its orbit & accelerates out of the Solar System. The icy mantle peels away to reveal that it was never a moon in the first place just a parked spacecraft millions of years old that has now decided to move on.

The crew of the Rockhopper IV know a lot about blowing up comets but not much about first contact with ultra-advanced aliens. They have two things to worry about: can they (and their new alien allies) negotiate their way through each harrying contact? & can they assimilate the avalanche of knowledge about their own future
- including all the glittering dangerous technologies that are now theirs for the taking
