Description

A strange accident at an offshore platform in the Caribbean draws Yoko, Vic and Pol into a new encounter with the Vineans - aliens who have lived underground for thousands of years without the world's knowledge. But Vinean politics are changing; some factions now believe it would be best to return to the surface, share it with the humans - while others are bent on taking it over by force. The young Japanese will have to fight to protect peace.
