Life
on the Moon is not all it’s cut out to be. Temperatures both day and
night are deadly and unbearable. There are few places to hide from the
blistering heat and the freezing cold. However, two people are
determined to make it work, despite the danger and difficulty that
challenges their dreams. Annie Taylor, a law student, came to the moon
to harvest Helium 3, a precious element that not only solved the energy
crisis, but also prevented World War III.
Trapped on the moon during a Helium storm, she is saved by Clint Baker and taken to his family’s ranch, started by Tex and Dolly Baker, who simply wanted to create a bit of their Dallas, Texas home on the strange and airless moon. Although Annie must return to Earth to solve her sister’s murder, she follows the murderer when he escapes to the Moon. Once there, her life becomes a complicated series of events involving power, control, and law. Appointed Lieutenant Governor of the Moon, she must arrange a world where the land is not under control, and the people are free to live out their hopes.
