| Plot Summary of Promised Land |
|---|
"Delanna Milleflores returns home to Keramos, determined to get the money from the sale of her mother's homestead within 24 hours. Instead, the minute she arrives on the planet, she finds she is married to her mother's business partner and if she leaves, will lose her claim to the homestead. Quirky characters, similiar to Light Raid and Bellwether."
Christine G., Resident Scholar
