Das fulminante Finale der New York Times-Bestsellertrilogie Um eine unmenschliche und grausame Gesellschaft zu stürzen, ist der Minenarbeiter Darrow selbst zum Goldenen, zum Mitglied der verhassten Oberschicht, geworden. Doch jetzt wurde sein Geheimnis entdeckt und er schwebt in tödlicher Gefahr. Wenn er sein Ziel erreichen will, muss er alles riskieren.

Band 2 der New-York-Times-BestsellertrilogieImmer war Darrow stolz darauf, als Minenarbeiter auf dem Mars den Planeten zu erschließen. Bis er herausfand, dass die Oberschicht, die Goldenen, längst in Saus und Braus leben und alle anderen ausbeuten. Unter Lebensgefahr schloss er sich dem Widerstand an und ließ sich selbst zum Goldenen verwandeln. Nun lebt er mitten unter seinen Feinden und versucht die ungerechte Gesellschaft aus ihrer Mitte heraus zum Umsturz zu bringen. Doch womit Darrow nicht gerechnet hat: auch unter den Goldenen findet er Freundschaft, Respekt und sogar Liebe. Zumindest so lange ihn niemand verrät. Und der Verrat lauert überall.
