But with the external threat gone, the Earth has become a battlefield once more.

Only Bean escapes; and he turns for help to Ender's brother Peter. Peter Wiggin, Ender's older brother, has already been manipulating the politics of Earth from behind the scenes. With Bean's help, he will eventually rule the world."Shadow of the Hegemon "is the second novel in Orson Scott Card's Shadow Series.
