Humanity is now made up of five colonies with an armada of ships that crisscross space towards five exoplanets. These worlds, populated by intelligent life forms, involve a single choice dictated by survival: conquer. The objective is achieved: Islandia, a planet of ice where only one race of indigenous people is listed. On the order of Admiral Ragnvald Hakarsson, the oberleutnant Kirsten Konig is responsible for establishing contact with the Islanders. But since his awakening, Konig has had constant headaches, vertigo and hallucinations that seem to be connected to the planet. On the ground, he is told that Colony 2 has been attacked without leaving any survivors or witnesses.Konig investigates, and while everything accuses the Islanders, she digs a whole other trail that will lead her to the heart of a plot she never thought possible.
