For generations, the Matilda has ferried the last of humanity to a mythical Promised Land. On its way, the ships leaders have imposed harsh moral restrictions and deep indignities on darkskinned sharecroppers like Aster, who they consider to be less than human. When the autopsy of Matildas sovereign reveals a surprising link between his death and her mothers suicide some quartercentury before, Aster retraces her mothers footsteps. Embroiled in a grudge with a brutal overseer and sowing the seeds of civil war, Aster learns there may be a way off the ship if shes willing to fight for it.
