Trial Earth

What’s left of the human race is now called Human Acquired Labor or HALs for short. They are housed at bases on the Moon and Mars and used to strip what is left of their home planet. Two young men and a young lady find something that explains the past and how they became slaves. For the first time, they learn about Trial Earth, where the inhabitants of Earth were notified that an intergalactic governing body put Homo sapiens on trial. The charge in the trial is misusing of a planetary body and negligence in the stewardship of the planet. Information is dangerous, and they quickly find themselves stoking the embers of a resistance that had long lost its flame by igniting the memories of a reckoning.
This is the third book in the point of origin universe, The Point Of Origin was the first, and Hawaiian Heart was the second. Each story is stand-alone but for a better understanding of the universe, they can be read in any order.
