In a world ruled by an enigmatic dictator named Burtard, master thief Altair breaks into the most heavily guarded building on Earth...not to steal riches, but to test whether an assassination is possible.
When caught by Burtard himself, Altair makes a daring gambit: offering his services to the very man he meant to kill. But as mysterious towers rise across the planet, promising free energy for all, Altair begins to suspect a darker purpose behind their construction. The murder of a high-ranking official who questioned the towers confirms his fears.
Now working as Burtard's trusted agent while secretly building a resistance movement, Altair must uncover the true nature of the towers before they become fully operational.
This taut science fiction thriller from 1953 combines political intrigue, resistance movements, and questions of humanity's future in a story that builds steadily to an explosive conclusion!yAlso in
