Synopsis
Sixty thousand years in the future, workers on a privately owned planet labor to make it habitable for wealthy colonists. When ranger Destry discovers a high-tech city hidden in the wilderness, she sets off a chain of events that challenges the corporation's control and forces three generations of terraformers to fight for the right to shape their own world.
