Synopsis

In July of 2049, Dr. Thomas McKinsey and a small band of scientists rebelled against the recently installed Congress-in-Council and declared the moon a republic. Six months later, McKinsey's followers were dead and he was dying. With the world below him entering a prolonged global struggle, McKinsey programmed the computers of Tranquility to continue his strategic vision, a plan to establish world unity even at a terrible cost. As an afterthought, he instructed the machines to raise the colony's only surviving resident, a baby destined to grow up on an abandoned moon base with computers as his only companions.In TRANQUILITY'S END, seventeen-year-old Grey Waters meets humans for the first time. Much to his surprise, Grey likes the Russian cosmonauts, especially Catarina, the attractive female communications officer, but he comes to realize that the goals of the Russian expedition are in conflict with the colony's security. When the Russians insist on reopening the moon, by force if necessary, Grey finds himself caught between his new friends and the computers who rule Tranquility.
