About This Book
A patrol cruiser investigates a cloud-shrouded planet where many visiting ships have been abandoned; landing parties find tools left in order and no bodies before encountering small, furry, teddy-bear–like creatures whose apparent affection conceals a predatory ability to implant irresistible suggestions in humans, driving some to fatal acts at a boiling lava lake. One scientist detects behavioral patterns—selective approaches, repetitive responses, and a faint path to the molten shore—and resists the mental pull long enough to test and interrupt the influence, exposing the creatures' role in the disappearances.
