The aliens have come from somewhere within the holes in space. United Earth's need for warp drive locked three people in bitter conflict. Elsa Niebohr chose a Balomain planet for Excelsior Corporation's research into sub-space travel. Surgeon Lieutenant Creighton needed Venturer Twelve to capture an alien being alive. Commander Tom Bruce, on assignment to protect Balomain Four, preferred his aliens dead. The arrival in space of an enormous, shimmering, gold ball with its strange cargo brought problems for them all.
