About This Book

Set in a tightly guarded postwar scientific enclave, the narrative follows scientist Alan Rackham, who helps develop high-speed atmospheric disks at Project Star. A grotesque industrial accident in a disk assembly room—an apparent severe burn that produces no pain and a subsequent unexplained disappearance—precedes an attempted assassination that Rackham's Navajo assistant Brave thwarts. The story traces escalating suspicion inside the project, the strain of secrecy under orbital surveillance, and the search for possible traitors or anomalous humans among colleagues, exploring paranoia, loyalty, and the ethical tensions of weapons research.
