En el año 2054, la astrónoma Aurora «Rory» Bell recibe un mensaje del espacio exterior que anuncia la llegada de una nave extraterrestre. Esta nave, tras viajar a una velocidad cercana a la de la luz, ha comenzado a desacelerar y se espera que llegue a la Tierra el día de Año Nuevo. Ante la inminente llegada de extraterrestres con tecnología inimaginable, o quizás, como sugiere un político, el Segundo Advenimiento de Jesucristo, las reacciones humanas son diversas e impredecibles. Joe Haldeman, con su habilidad narrativa, transforma la ciudad de Gainesville (Florida, EEUU) en un microcosmos de personajes, ambiciones y temores que reflejan la esencia de la humanidad. Tras el éxito de 'Paz Interminable', Haldeman analiza el futuro cercano y las reacciones humanas ante lo desconocido a través de este misterioso anuncio de la llegada de seres desconocidos.
