Publisher's Synopsis

H. Beam Piper wrote the science fiction book Four-Day Planet, which was originally released in 1961. It tells the tale of the planet Fenriss, which rotates in 2000 hours. A 17-year-old teenage reporter who is looking into the planet's corrupt leadership is the main character.A rocket ship arrives at the spaceport at the beginning of the narrative on a regular basis. The Federation manages the port, and former members of the Federal Army work as security guards. It doesn't meddle in neighborhood matters.Leo Belsher, the Earth-based representative for the Co-operative, and Bish "Bishop" Ware, the town alcoholic, are among the passengers. Bish is unemployed but receives a bank deposit for each ship that arrives.If they start a civil war, Bish suggests making sure to kill all of their adversaries. Joe wants to form a group of guys to go after Ravick; Bish recommends a lynch mob.In the movie, a party of hunters learns that Hallstock and Ravick are in the spaceport and protected by the Federation. The hunters intended to make a distraction, but Ravick's crew set some tallow wax on fire. The Co-operative will file a lawsuit on Earth to recover the money that was taken from Ravick/bank Gerrit's account. The natives will be able to see Gerrit's trial for the murder of Loki.
