Summary:
Kibou-daini is a world obsessed with cheating death. Barrayaran Imperial Auditor Mls Vorkosigan can barely disapprove-he’s been cheating loss of life his whole life, on the theory that turnabout is usually fair play. But when a Kibou-daini cryocorp-an immortal organization whose job it is to shepherd its all-too-mortal iced patrons into an unknown future-attempts to increase its franchise in to the Barrayaran Empire, Emperor Gregor dispatches his best troubleshooter, Miles, to check it out.
On Kibou-daini, Kilometers discovers generational turmoil over money and assets is heating up, even while refugees displaced in time skew this is of “generation” past repair. Here he finds a boy using a enthusiasm for domestic pets and an unhealthy key, a Snow White trapped in an icy coffin who burns up to rewrite her very own story, and a mysterious crone who is the very embodiment from the warning “Don’t mess with the secretary.” Bribery, corruption, conspiracy, kidnapping-something is normally rotten on Kibou-daini, and it isn’t because of power outages in the Cryocombs. And Kilometers is in the middle-of difficulty.
