Earth has become an ecological nightmare. Overhead, on a vast metallic island in space, the scientists of the Trikon project undertake research too risky to be conducted anywhere else – research which could save the planet.
Then Commander Dan Tighe discovers the truth. Trikon’s new priority is espionage. The scientists – consumed by greed, lust and drugs – are running the lab for their own gain. And one of the crew is trying to destroy the whole station…
Only Commander Tighe can save the Trikon station – and only the Trikon can save the earth.
