This book is short. It introduces a future history in which Earth colonies are vying for success, and even survival, in a galaxy with many alien rivals. The scene is diplomacy. An important mission fails and "The B Team" is sent on an emergency basis to try to put things to rights. They perform cleverly and heroically and save the day. The head honchos consider promoting the "B team" to be cutting edge problem solvers and then the book ends. As I said, it is short, and could well be the start of a series -- maybe it is, I dunno.
