BLURB:

 

 

It is the year 2051 and the International Space Institute has just sent two rival astrobiologists to search for extraterrestrial life on Europa, the mysterious ice moon of Jupiter. What they encounter could not only revolutionize science, it might make one of them the most famous person on Earth. Or does the Universe have other plans?

Excerpt One:

 

Sure enough, Bikman returned alone the next day and held out an empty bilum.

 

Gnesh sounded exasperated. “We can’t give him any more. What are we going to eat?” Spreading his empty hands Charlie said, “I have nothing more to give you.”

 

Bikman’s eyebrows shot up.

 

“You ‘no sabe,’ right?” Charlie leafed through his dictionary. “Someday I’ll have to teach you some English.”

 

“Or you’ll learn Tok Pisin,” Gnesh teased.

 

“Nogat…nogat… mo. Nogat mo,” Charlie read aloud. When Bikman stared down at his empty sack, Charlie relented and took a small headlamp out of his pocket. “Here, for you.”

 

“I hope you have another one,” Gnesh muttered as Charlie showed the chief how the headlamp worked.

 

Bikman smiled and held out his hand again. “Givim one thousand dollah.”

 

The astrobiologists looked at each other. “He knows some English,” Gnesh said. Charlie turned back to the chief. “Why one thousand dollars?”

 

Bikman grinned. “Baim president.”

 

Charlie’s jaw dropped. “You want to buy our president?”

 

Gnesh rolled his laughter into a hoarse cough. “He’s not kidding, Charlie. I read about a tribe that tried to buy Lyndon Johnson back in the 1960s.”

 

Charlie was curious. “Why baim president?”

 

“President bringum kago. Kago gutpela.”

 

Charlie phrased his response carefully. “No thousand dollars. Now baim president one hundred thousand dollars.”
