Trapped in an economic rat-race, Kevin Blake had little going for him but an over-active imagination-an attribute which brought him to the notice of Paul Trevainen. Trevainen made Kevin an offer he couldn't resist: find a billionaire's daughter, bring her back to Earth, and collect a dazzling reward.The only trouble?

Worst yet, he would have to rebel against established authority, become a fugitive, and even a criminal.Was it a mistake to long for adventure?
