Summary
In this wry, paranoid vision of the future, overpopulation has turned cities into crammed industrial anthills. For those sick of this dystopian reality only one corporation promises an alternative. Trails of Hoffman, Inc., will teleport you to Whale's Mouth, a colonised planet billed as the supreme paradise, where you can take up as much space as you want. The only catch is that you can never come back. When Rachael ben Applebaum discovers that the promotional films of happy crowds cheering their newfound existence on Whale's Mouth are faked, he decides to embark on the eighteen-year journey there to see if anyone wants to return... but what he discovers may be more dangerous than even he had imagined
