Ambasadoria to miasto sprzeczności położone na krańcach zbadanego wszechświata. Avice Benner Cho jest nawigatorką na statku podróżującym w „wiecznym nurcie”, morzu czasoprzestrzeni rozciągającym się pod dnem codziennej rzeczywistości. Po wielu latach powraca na swoją rodzinną planetę. Ludzie nie są tu jedyną inteligentną rasą, a Avice nawiązuje niewytłumaczalną więź z Gospodarzami – tajemniczymi istotami niezdolnymi do kłamstwa.
