As he is dying of Bay Syndrome a disease rooted in the violent protests that destroyed his homeland Pete reveals his hidden past: the rise of a charismatic professor-turned-dictator, the betrayal of ideals by ruthless power seekers, and his escape to build a new life abroad. Charged with reporting on the looming 50th anniversary of the Treaty of Niagara, Tara is thrust into the powder keg of North America, where old wounds and new tensions threaten to reignite.
