The voyage to Alpha Centauri usually takes years but Max Vanmore, reluctant heir to Vanmore Titanium, dares to make the journey in a ship powered by an experimental FTL drive. He knows that his is in a race, a race to a distant planet where technology generates unspeakable riches. Money is at stake. Lives are at stake. But even more... Whoever wins the race will rule the future.
