About This Book

An earth investigator follows a fugitive to a swamp-choked Venusian colony where settlements cling to survival beneath perpetual cloudbanks. The fugitive uses a convincing disguise and is believed to possess a secret treaty that could spark upheaval, while officials warn that a mysterious North-Fever drives afflicted individuals to leave settlements and vanish into the jungle. The account traces the investigator’s pursuit across muddy streets, hydroponic sheds, and treacherous marshland, detailing encounters with hostile locals, the breakdown of order, and violent confrontations as human intrigue and an unforgiving environment collide.
