Back cover text

Earthmen in Trouble

Harris was caged in an underwater "zoo" by a pack of blue lobsters.

Maria drew a five-year sentence on a puritanical planet for trying to buy a souvenir — and for being excessively feminine.

Taranto & Meyers had committed the crime of being shipwrecked on a planet that didn't like strangers.

Gerson was simply kidnapped — and nobody had any idea why.

Five citizens of Terra were being held on other worlds — and the ultra-secret Department 99 existed only to set them, and others like them, free.

This tense novel is the story of one evening's work for Department 99 — their successes and failures — and of the strangest crisis that almost wrecked D-99.

Interior text

Rockets slammed past — just missing the tall, gaunt man who dodged down the stairs of the Earth Embassy. A figure loomed in a doorway and he snapped off a quick blaster shot at it — missed.

He'd killed one man, wounded others — and was carrying papers stolen from the secret Embassy files. They had to stop him — but they couldn't!

And, world's away, the men of Department 99 watched on their galaxy-spanning view screen ... knowing they were responsible for this disaster — and powerless to do anything about it!
