Summary
Yarrow is a simple sanitation worker aboard a simple research vessel that's collaborating with the insect-like aliens known as the Host. He wants to do his job, keep his head down, and avoid talking to other humans as much as possible. The scientists aboard the ship are working to create a self-sufficient star-ship. The Hosts are reclusive, but Yarrow finds himself talking to them more and more as the project gets underway. Despite wanting to keep himself from making any meaningful connections on the job, he finds one of the Hosts to be both fascinating and entirely too familiar for an alien race that looks so different from his own.
There's more to this voyage than either of them expects. Someone here knows Yarrow, or who he used to be, threatening to undo all of the work he's put into starting over.
