Foundation's Edge
1982
In the generations after the excitements of the Mule, the Foundation continued along a path of advancement that mirrored the path laid out in Hari Seldon's Plan virtually to a tee. This sheer perfection makes Councilor Golan Trevise very suspicious. When he denounces Seldon and his Plan on the council floor, the ruling mayor objects in a very direct manner; Trevise is arrested and marched to the starport where he is given one of the Foundation's most advanced starships and ordered never to return.
The book details his search through the Galaxy for evidence to support his contention and he manages to find it.
Of course, the Second Foundation is still around and investigates the First Foundation's investigation of Trevise, sending out it's own investigative team.
And there is a mysterious third power; the supposed home world of the late Mule.
When Trevise is finally allowed to find Gaia, he also learns why they have become interested in him. A choice needs to be made, and Trevise is the only person who can make it.
