Publisher's summary

A unlikely love story sparks an intergalactic conflict.

Generations ago, the bodhi tree fell in love with another tree. In the painstakingly slow way of their species, she sought to express her love and consummate the union.
But before that could happen, humankind violently uprooted her beloved and carted her off to the stars, as part of a human colonisation drive.
Grief-strick, the bodhi tree embarked on an interstellar quest for her beloved.
In the process, she is compelled to expand her reach by building a galactic empire.
Pitting her against the powerful forces of humankind and its instinctive penchant for violent conflict.
Enraged, the bodhi tree strikes out, meeting violence with violence.
Until humanity itself finds itself an endangered species, teetering on the brink of extinction.
In desperation, a human ambassador is despatched to negotiate peace with the bodhi tree.
Will she succeed?
Or will the backdealing elements of humanity put all humankind at risk of outright genocide?
In this original science fiction story, the author of the acclaimed Burnt Empire Trilogy weaves a compelling, empathic and entertaining tale of intergalactic conflict.
