Synopsis

Rockets streak through the sky as a lone fugitive makes his desperate escape from the Earth Embassy, carrying stolen secrets that could ignite interstellar chaos. He's fast, lethal, and relentless-dodging pursuit with deadly precision. But even as the Embassy scrambles to stop him, the real stakes are light-years away, where the operatives of Department 99 watch in horror on their galaxy-spanning view-screen. They've unleashed this catastrophe-and now the fate of worlds lies beyond their reach.

Biographie de l'auteur

Horace B. Fyfe (1918-1997) wrote several Science Fiction novels and short stories, spanning more than a decade. He wrote in that golden age of science fiction before reality had intruded to spoil imagination. His stories dealt mostly with the interaction of humans and aliens on far off worlds in ways that were as creative as they were imaginative.
