Publisher's summary
Professor Bernice Summerfield is enjoying a break. A break from work, a break from the rebuilding of the Braxiatel Collection and a break from Jason, Adrian, and even her beloved Peter.
She feels she's entitled to a bit of downtime. So, why won’t anyone leave her alone? Before long, she's being sent off after an old space artefact, only to crash-land on a planet apparently devoid of life. Devoid of life, that is, except for the robotic animals, big game hunters and ruthless corporate administrators of the type she’s learned to know and mistrust.
Benny realises that to survive she must join in on what might be the most dangerous ‘game’ she’s ever played...
