About This Book

An outlawed spacer returns from a distant world carrying a dismantled experimental device as interplanetary tensions between Earth and a newly allied planet escalate. He is drawn into a trap, seized by council forces, briefly escapes and is overcome, then conveyed into guarded chambers while political maneuvers unfold. Simultaneously a malevolent supra-dimensional entity, envisaged as a flame of pure thought, penetrates the system and bonds with a human agent whose malignance matches its own, creating a deadly bargain. The converging cosmic menace and human treachery leave the lone outlaw confronting intertwined supernatural and political threats.
