"William Dietz tells the tale of one man whose job becomes nothing less than a mission to change the status quo... In a crumbling futuristic society, Jak Rebo is a Runner-an interstellar courier-whose present job is to deliver a future religious leader to his people, while avoiding assassins. If that's not enough, he gets involved with a very beautiful woman who holds the secret to instantaneous travel between star systems-a secret that some would kill for. With death waiting at every port, Jak soon realizes that this time he is running for his life."
