In a world run by an authoritarian government and enforced by the Special Police, scientists are kept virtual prisoners, made to run the atomic plants that power the great cities. Secretly, a small number of scientists have been plotting a revolution.
Scientist Brad Lilling is caught up in plots and counter-plots. Hunted by the authorities as well as by the scientists who conspire against them, Brad may be the one person who can save Earth’s cities from entombment—and death!
