Summary

24 October 2114: the day that shocked the world.

Young diplomat Cory Wilson narrowly escapes death in the assassination of President Sirkonen. No one claims responsibility but there is no doubt that the attack is extraterrestrial.

Cory was meant to start work as a representative to Gamra, the alien organization that governs the FTL transport network, but now his new job may well be scrapped in anger.

Worse, as Earth uses military force to stop any extraterrestrials coming or leaving, as 200,000 extraterrestrial humans are trapped on Earth, as the largest army in the galaxy prepares to free them by force, only Cory has the experience, language skills, and contacts to solve the crime.

But he's broke, out of a job, and a long way from Earth.

Very enjoyable interstellar political thriller

I really enjoyed this audio book. An excellent narrator, with easily distinguished voices for the various characters.
The world setting was interesting - post climate change on Earth we find ourselves only one of many “human” type races which have been seeded across the galaxy. They have established political structures and control interstellar travel . The intersection of on and off world politics along with the very different social structures of the various member planets makes for many twists and turns in the story.
I will be buying the book and listening to the next in the series.
