Tau Ceti: The New Colonists

The arrival of the library ship Asimov had brought Pitcairn out of the lethargy of two hundred years of isolation. The Pitcairners used the knowledge from Asimov to build a better world, less dependent on faraway Earth.

The announcement of a new ship, Endeavor, which could make the journey in months instead of years, promised a closer relationship with Earth. That should have been a reason to celebrate, but the colonists had a secret, and its revelation could endanger everything they had accomplished. A new breed of colonists would bring challenges unlike anything they had faced before.
