Publisher's Synopsis
The murmur of conversation around the conference table died as the World Secretary entered the room and took his place at the head of the table. "Ladies and Gentlemen," he said. "I'll not detain you with formalities today. The representative of the Navy Department is waiting outside to present the case for his proposal. You all know something of the scheme; it has been heard and passed as feasible by the Advisory Group. It will now be our responsibility to make the decision. I ask that each of you in forming a conclusion remember that our present situation can only be described as desperate, and that desperate measures may be in order." Commander Greylorn must find a lost colony and beg it to come to Earths aid. But before he can accomplish this he must first survive a mutiny aboard his own star ship. A taut story of interplanetary intrigue and adventure!
