I. A Twist in Crime
1
The wall was high, the night chill. Mutant crickets sang, unafraid of the intruder, providing a cover of
sound that masked the inevitable noises of his ascent. Glossy foliage swayed against the wall in
intermittent gusts, throwing speckled moon-shadows that camouflaged the climber's motions. Nature was
cooperative—but the mechanisms of man that lay ahead would not be kind.
Jeff Font heaved his body to the top and lay flat against the lingering warmth of the stone. His chest
labored, but he forced air through his nostrils steadily, smoothly, allowing his body to recover from the
exertion. The wind cut into his eyes, bringing tears—for a moment carrying him to a time he had cried as
a child for another reason, not so very far from this spot.
But this was not the time for such memories! He had to slash away the hypocrisy that had destroyed
three lives and elevated a usurper.
The moon faded. Jeff's hand slid across the inner edge of the wall, finding the rope and its adhesive
plastoid terminus. He worked it free, coiled it, and dropped it into the darkness ahead. He listened for
the muffled impact and shivered in Earth's exterior climate.
The moon returned, flooding the enclosed grounds and the mansion beyond with its radiance. Jeff
gathered his black fiber cloak, checked the four bulbs nestled in its fastened pockets, rolled over and
dropped the shorter distance to the inner garden. The wind whipped up his cloak as he fell and fingered
his naked body. He hit the lawn and tumbled behind shaped shrubbery. The damp green odor of cut
grass rose about him as he found the rope in the dark and set it against the wall; then he began running.
The incredibly opulent home of George McKissic loomed before him, in this light a psychedelic skeleton
of translucent timbers. Jeff dodged around the nude statuary, the woman-shaped pool, the suggestively
curvaceous pathways and hedges, resenting the wasteful space they occupied in an overcrowded world,
and the impact the symbols were having upon him. He tried to concentrate on the heat-perceptor units he
was sure were there, the subsonic emplacements, the nightbeams. One miscalculation, one distraction
would expose him, and that would be his exit.
He reached the house, again restraining his urgent breathing, and stood within its shadow. He had made
it! Unless McKissic had converted to silent alarms.... But no; his informant had been positive on that
score. Jeff had to assume that his precautions had been effective. There was no metal on his body, not
even in his teeth, and he had studied the estate defenses intimately.

A sound? He listened, far more anxious now that he was stationary than while he moved. A routine
noise, carried by a freak of the wind; a sniffing, shuffling....
The hounds!
He had almost forgotten the hounds! The giant synthetics with bulblike noses, steelbone fangs,
supercanine speed... watchdogs, partly flesh, partly metal, mostly savagery. Electronic circuitry for
nerves, computer cells for brains and a taste for blood.
Prickling uncomfortably, Jeff felt in a pocket for one of the soft bulbs. His thumb touched the circular
cavity in its base; his fingers closed about its small mass. Moving as though there were no hurry, he
nipped the spout with his teeth. A few drops squirted into his mouth: the quintessence of machine oil,
mansweat and fermented animal urine.
He suppressed the gag reflex and spat the stuff out gently. It was intended for the caninedroids, not
humanoids. He aimed the nozzle at the ground and sprayed a tight little circle. He moved over and
squirted a second, larger circle intersecting the first; then, as the bulb gave out, he dropped it in the
center. There was no certain technique to foil the hounds, but this was his best hope. He stepped back
spitting again.
A shimmering above betrayed a balcony rail of glastic. He leaped for it, caught hold and swung his body
astride. He had performed similar maneuvers many times on Alpha IV, and the poor light was hardly a
handicap. Glastic was transparent in varying degrees so that plants could grow beneath it, but it
withstood stress as well as steel. McKissic's entire house seemed to be made of it.
Eight feet above the ground, he shuffled along what appeared to be midair. How easy it would be to
omit a single panel, and thus dump the intruder into the house! But no—not with the exotic ornamentals
he could see growing beneath, black-leafed in the filtered moonglow. McKissic might not care whether a
visitor fell, but he would hardly permit his valuable plantings to be crushed!
Jeff walked beside the opaque second-story wall, matching the architecture to the floor-plan he had
memorized. He stopped. This was the room—the one she should be sleeping in. The panel was secure,
and he knew better than to try to break it physically. A full blow with a sledgehammer would make a
very small scratch—and a very high-decibel noise.
He reached for the second bulb. He knew which pocket it occupied, but his fingers quested over the
surface again, reading the pattern of indentations in its base. Two circular depressions, this time. Check.
He brought it out, handling it with greater care than he had the first, though he knew it was quite sturdy
until the seal was broken.
He paused. The hounds had come up; he could hear their distinctive snuffling within fifty feet. They could
not reach him here—they were too stupid to desert the trail long enough to come at him by way of the
stairs farther along the wall. If they were not entirely deceived, they would bay—and he would be
finished.
He could make out the gross hulks of them, noses swelling and shrinking like breathing balloons,
occasional glints from their metallic haunches.And what rough beast, he thought, knowing the words for
a quotation but unable to place it,its hour come round at last... The rest was lost. He reprimanded
himself once more for delaying unnecessarily; why he remembered such fragments he could not say.

The hounds trotted aimlessly, sniffing the spray-pattern: they had not bayed. The scent was working.
He unwound the tape and depressed the special tap to break the interior seal, pointing the nozzle away
from his body. He touched the tip to the glastic surface and squeezed. The potent acid welled out and
dribbled thickly down; he could trace its descending shadow.
His hand moved unsteadily. He was afraid now, and he suspected that the dangerous fluid he employed
was a flimsy pretext. It was what lay beyond this entry that set his pulses pounding.Who lay beyond....
Two tiny tri-pronged suction clasps to hold the pane; five minutes for the acid to eat through. He set the
empty container aside, knowing that it too would disintegrate before morning, now that air had activated
its content.
Three minutes. His muscles tightened. Fourteen years—and now a wait of a few more minutes was
tearing him apart!
Time. He pushed against the panel, and it broke loose easily. Holding tight to the suction handles, he
tilted it endwise and maneuvered it out. It would not be safe to touch for several minutes, until the acid
neutralized itself on the overdose of glastic. He set the panel flat, pried off the handles, listened
momentarily for some possible alarm, and stepped into the room.
Except for the opaque floor and the interior furnishings, it was as though he were still on the balcony. He
glanced back through walls that were completely transparent from inside, and wondered what kind of
person would revel in the illusion of exhibition. He had been plainly visible all this time, had anyone
watched....
There was a breathing. The hounds? No—it was gentle and even. It was the whispering respiration of
her he had come for, audible in the utter stillness of the bedroom.
Pamela.
He had made his entry quietly, but not without some unintentional noises. Either Pamela was a sound
sleeper, or she had taken a depressant. No matter—if it was sleepnol, a second dose would not harm
her; if something else, there was unlikely to be any adverse reaction.
He found the bulb with three dents and a hard glastic cap. He uncovered the needle and aimed it,
weaponlike. He trod silently to the bed.
A beam of moonlight descended slantwise through the ceiling and haloed the enormous full-circle
mattress. Jeff stared at the form outlined by the clinging, static-charged sheet. God, she was a woman!
He had not seen her since she was a child of eight, and hardly knew what she looked like now, but the
sight of that body was reassurance enough. He could imagine the curves and valleys and the secret
shadow places—and had done so, until this moment.
He leaned over her, his shoulder intercepting the beam and throwing her head into a delicate penumbra.
He studied the fair curve of her cheek, the sleek diaphane of her hair spread out upon the pillow, the tilt
of her face up and a little to the side. Even so might a girl sleep in the arms of her lover. Even so—but not
tonight.
He brought the needle to her exposed neck, an inch away, and held his other hand above her mouth in
case she tried to scream. He squeezed the bulb; the spray shot across, a jet so fine he couldn't see it in

the shadow. Her breathing paused, then she sighed faintly and relaxed again. She had not really struggled
against the drug. She hadn't tried to scream.
He looked about. Her robe was hanging neatly beside the bed. He fetched it and laid it out upon the
sheet. His fingers pinched the edge of the covering and tugged it back.
She was wearing a sheer nightgown. He was relieved not to have to dress her. As it was, he had to
concentrate to keep his mind on his mission....
He slid his arms under her knees and shoulders and lifted her to the robe. He drew it about her, not
bothering with the sleeves, and picked her up again. She was light, as he had expected. The long hair
brushed his arm, the glossy black tresses that had fascinated him from childhood... Again he had to cut
off his thoughts.
He carried her through the hole in the wall and onto the balcony. The dusky forms still ranged below,
perplexed by the pattern of scents; if they did not hear him, there would be no pursuit.
He was not supporting his burden properly. He had no hand free to explore the brush and branches of
the garden below, or to hold the fourth bulb—the weapon—in case he should be discovered before
reaching the wall. He had let his infatuation blind him to business.
He maneuvered Pamela's body into an unceremonious drape over his right shoulder, her slim legs
dangling down his front. He walked to the end of the balcony and descended the curving steps there.
This was the reason he had taken the more dangerous direct route in: to leave the easier one free for the
burdened return. By this time the noses of the hounds should be saturated with the concentrated decoy
scent, so that even an upwind passage would not betray him.
He made it without event. He deposited her against the base of the wall and found the coiled rope. He
unclamped it, held the end and flung the coil up over the wall; it unwound in air until only the adhesive
plastoid remained. This thunked against the far side.
He tested it, making sure the shock of contact had jellied the plastoid enough to adhere firmly to the
stone before freezing in place. It had.
This was the most difficult part of the retreat, because he had to scale the wall while carrying the
girl—and making no noise. He was ready: he had scaled the cliffs of Alpha IV with heavy loads of
explosive, and done it hampered by the cumbersome airsuit. Earth's breathable atmosphere was not the
least of its wonders.
This time he had only a few feet to cover and a jar or drop would not blast him across the landscape.
Still, the burden was not properly harnessed, and he was out of condition; four years in space had
sapped his endurance in gravity, though exercise had maintained the muscles. He had been surprised by
his exhaustion when he scaled the wall coming in. Now he had a harder job to do.
He shifted her to lie facing him across his shoulders and biceps, so that he could grip the rope with both
hands without worrying about her support. He could do it with a quick effort, then recover on top of the
wall before going on. This time he did not hesitate. He hauled on the rope and walked up the wall,
wedging his chin against the girl's hip to keep her from sliding off to the side.
He manhandled her to the top, rolling her roughly over his forearms to lie on the stone, and clambered
up beside her. He had done it—but this time it was impossible to quell his tumultuous panting. The wind
Generated by ABC Amber LIT Converter, http://www.processtext.com/abclit.html
played over his body, refreshing now, although he knew it was colder than before.
A bright column of light stabbed through the foliage and splashed against the wall. One of the rolling
mechanicals! Jeff pressed the girl flat and covered her as well as he could with his cloak, knowing that the
patroller would not leave its runway unless it became suspicious. He had not won free yet. If it spotted
him—
He fumbled into the last pocket, cursing mentally as the folds of the tunic bunched resistively, and
worked out the bulb. He held it lightly, his fingers tensed and quivering as though eager to break the
restraint of the mind and crush its flexible shell.
The robot halted, its searchlight steady. Jeff knew what that meant. He crushed the bulb and held it,
waiting.
The shadows of the trees leaped along the wall as the beam moved—and the machine rolled on, silently.
Incredibly it had missed them.
Jeff sighed. The worst was over, and he knew he would not get a break like that again. He remembered
the grenade he held. He could not let go now, since it had been activated by the pressure of his hand
against the key grooves. It would go off upon release.
Well, he no longer needed it. He flipped it back the way he had come and ducked his head. One, two,
three seconds... then a whistling puff, silence.
He looked. Taffylike white strings were draped over several cubic yards of bushes, an eerie network.
Had that bomb struck in the vicinity of man, animal or machine, that target would have been severely
entangled. The plastoid strands would stretch but not break, and were exceedingly sticky and slightly
corrosive.
Jeff smiled. It was said that robots never lost their tempers, but this stuff brought them marvelously close
to it.
He adjusted the rope, made the descent, and carried her across the phosphalt pavement to his rented
monocar. It had almost been too easy, apart from that one scare.
The car was standing at less than a fifteen degree angle, tilting west. Good—that meant he had been
gone less than an hour, despite the time the adventure had seemed to consume. He had had to do without
a watch, since some of its works were metallic and would have activated the estate sensors. But a
gyrocar was both compass and clock. It held its position without regard to the motion of the planet,
which meant that it leaned to the west—when parked—at a rate of fifteen degrees per hour, unless set on
its side with the gyro oriented east-west. Let Earth spin, fashioning day and night—the gyro was
indifferent.
He deposited the girl in the front seat, watched the safety harness clasp her firmly, and activated the
drive motor. He turned up the gyro, allowing it a moment to accelerate from standby torque, then got out
and trod on the south bumper. The vehicle resisted, but slowly responded by tilting east, righting itself.
That was precession: the gyro converted the stress he put upon it to a force acting at right angles. Such
correction of a gyro's attitude was elementary physics, and the average driver did it routinely without
being aware of the complex theorems defining the action.
White light again, turning the road dark. One of the roving highway robots was coming. McKissic
Generated by ABC Amber LIT Converter, http://www.processtext.com/abclit.html
certainly was well guarded! Jeff could not hope to outrun the cruiser in this middle-aged vehicle.
Well, if he could not run, he could pretend. He jumped into the car and shoved the steering bar out of
the way. The police mechanicals were notoriously stupid, and programmed to ignore certain types of
activities. Theoretically the colossal Vicinc industry provided for all needs of the flesh—but the lads and
ladies still parked in the country lanes.
The spotlight swung over the shrubbery, igniting it in jumping patches as though a will-o'-the-wisp were
dancing. Jeff leaned over to kiss Pamela.
The beam cut between them, illuminating her face and blinding him with its dazzle. He shielded his eyes
with one hand, seeing the black-haired afterimage as he recovered. The cop was coming in to investigate!
"Damn flattread!" he muttered. The machine should have swerved away once it picked up the embracing
figures—unless it had other instructions. Unless McKissic had already discovered the abduction of his
daughter.
He gunned the wheeldrive, grabbed the steering bar, and slapped the reverse button. Dry sticks
crackled under the single tire as it bounced over the side embankment, and the gyro vibrated against the
stress of uneven terrain.
He braked and leaned back to allow his own seat harness to secure him, while the cop pulled up at the
side of the road. He could discern its outline now: one of the large monorobots, equipped to clamp on to
a speeder and bring it to terms in a hurry. Already the antennae were extended, tracking his car precisely,
and the grapple-arms were unfolding.
Jeff's hands played over the controls. His car shot forward. He braced himself for the crunch of metal
against assorted other materials as his vehicle careened into the side of the police robot and spun off,
upright but out of control. The gyro could not protect against motion aligned with its own plane. He
accelerated again, letting the wheel catch at the road and steady the car; then he was off, down the lane
and away from the cop.
It did not follow. Its headlight shone aimlessly in the opposite direction, and Jeff could see by the
reflected light that its antennae were bent. Between them, in the dark, the purple night-glow of the
phosphalt surfacing reappeared. He had succeeded in putting the cop out of commission!
His own car seemed to he virtually undamaged. Had he struck the robot at any other time, it would have
been a different story; only when its arms were extending was it vulnerable—if caught by surprise and
from the proper angle.
His own headlamp picked out the winding drive ahead. Soon he would intersect the main highway,
where he could lose himself in the traffic congestion, and be safe. Then he could take Pamela to his—
Pamela? Suddenly he remembered the blackness of her hair, in his eye's afterimage, as the robot's beam
played over them.
That image should have been the opposite color, since it was a reaction to eyestrain.
The girl beside him had short blonde hair.
A siren wailed behind him, and lights flashed in his rear vision screen. The cop had summoned
Generated by ABC Amber LIT Converter, http://www.processtext.com/abclit.html
help—and this time there would be no element of surprise based on his off-planet driving experience to
jog him loose. Not from several policebots, forewarned. They were notthat stupid. And there would be
others waiting to head him off at the highway.
He was committed now. Without further hesitation he swerved off the road, maintaining sufficient speed
to crash over the underbrush. The car's headlamp picked out the small tree-trunks looming ahead, and he
navigated desperately. The gyro would keep him upright, but guaranteed nothing else, cross-country.
One had to be aware of the limitations of modern technology as well as the advantages, in such a
situation.
He hated to think of the path of destruction he was carving through this valuable wilderness preserve.
The pursuers had not followed. They would be afraid to do even more damage to officially protected
countryside—that was one advantage a lawbreaker had. The relief would be transitory, however—they
would keep him under radar observation and be on hand to arrest him when he hit the highway again,
unless he acted rapidly and unexpectedly. If he dallied too long, they would send a floater in after him.
He gave them no time. He had memorized a map of the area when he set this up, and he knew where he
was going. He wrestled the car out the other side of the woods, hoping the tire would stand up to the
punishment, and charged up a steep embankment. He landed on an abandoned freight road, overgrown
but retaining a hard underlying bed, and followed it two miles into a current freight artery.
This would take him all the way into the city—but it was dangerous. He did not know with what
frequency or velocity the monster trucks came by at this hour of the night. He had not had time for
research in depth.
He learned. Ahead he saw a band of light the size of a historic football field, and knew that one of the
house-sized vehicles was already bearing down on him. The trucks were so massive they did not use
gyros; they had clusters of wheels at every extremity.
He cursed under his breath. This was no good. Nothing to do but take to the wilds again. He drove up
the opposite embankment, over, and down into a rocky stream-bed. Behind him, the truck roared by,
traveling at a hundred and seventy-five miles per hour, a juggernaut in the night.
Top speed for his car was hardly over a hundred. He could not even merge with that traffic!
The vehicle bounced out of the stream and struck an ancient stone wall. It caromed off, dislodging
several of the irregular rocks, and the wheel began to slide back down into the stream. The uneven
support exerted stress on the gyro, and precession nudged the car to the side. He steered it to level
ground and shifted his body as far as he could to counter the effect; the seat harness and the girl's inert
weight made the task awkward.
The gyrocar was a magnificent development, and it had revolutionized transportation—but a driver with
the wrong reflexes could kill himself in a hurry. Jeff's reflexes were good. He had been brought up on
gyro theory, and this was Alpha IV driving at its suicidal best.
Now he was at the edge of a cultivated field. Hydroponics and related projects took care of the great
majority of Earthly dietary needs. Only the very rich could afford the conspicuously wasteful consumption
of organic produce. The land alone would be worth millions—
He had little sympathy for the ostentatious rich. He steered for the field. Two wire fences were strung
Generated by ABC Amber LIT Converter, http://www.processtext.com/abclit.html
between him and the next road, and no policebots were in sight yet. He could make a clean escape if the
wire was flimsy enough—if it was electrical or barbed. If the fences were of the acid-coat variety—
He accelerated and crashed through the first. The strands stretched and snapped, making an almost
musical jangle. He churned through low foliage, wincing in spite of himself at the damage he was doing to
someone's phenomenally valuable crop, hurdled a narrow ditch and struck the second fence.
The wire broke again—but fine lines of color spread across his windshield. Acid: it would eat through
both glastic and metal in a few minutes, but if it hadn't touched the tire he could make it into the city
before the car gave out. At least he was going to try.
Such wire would never have been used had there been animals about. Probably robots tended the crop,
programmed to stay well clear. What, then, was this deadly fence guarding against? Surely drivers did
not make a habit of... unless people who could not afford such luxuries liked to make raids. Yes....
The threat to his car was exaggerated, as it turned out. The farmer had been careless, and the acid was
evidently too weak to do more than etch. There would be wholesale firings tomorrow.
He drove on down the highway, now an anonymous part of the traffic, thinking about the significance of
the countryside he had traversed. Earth's population problems had been solved: that is, the rate of
increase had been stabilized at an acceptably small percentage. Regular programs eliminated the original,
random housing and substituted domiciles capable of servicing a hundred times the population on the
same land area. In this manner, the schooltexts claimed, the cities maintained their original
boundaries—that is, those existing at the arbitrary year 2000—while population continued to grow.
Countryside remained—in moderation.
He reached the city-proper without further trouble and guided the car down into the parking levels under
his hotel, hardly aware of what he was doing. All he had to worry about was the girl. The girl he had
gone to such pains to kidnap. The wrong girl.
He knew he ought to leave her in the car and take the next flight to parts uncharted. He had no power
over McKissic any more, not with this girl instead of Pamela. He had been outsmarted, and he had lost.
It would take them only a few hours to run down his identity, and he had to be far away by then. She
was a liability.
He walked around the parked car, released the harness and lifted the girl out. She was beginning to
regain consciousness; that meant that there had been no prior dose of sleepnol before the one he had
given her. He would have to watch her carefully—but before he let her go, he would know why she had
taken Pamela's place. It was an obvious set-up, no mistake about that: she had had dark hair when he'd
taken her from her bed. A wig, obviously; it must have been shaken loose and fallen during the escape,
probably when he'd lifted her over the wall.
But he might still be able to salvage something from this episode. How had McKissic known his plan in
advance? Could this girl tell him?
(Or was he simply that hungry for female companionship? She had cheated him of his mission. What did
she owe him in return?)
Her feet were bare. He held her upright while he reached inside the car for the slippers he had bought.
He had thought to put them on Pamela's dancer's feet....

As an afterthought, he touched the disconnect stud, so that the gyro would not fight the props. He did
not expect to use this car again soon, if ever; someone else could align the gyro properly when the time
came. Tonight it would rotate with the motion of the planet, unconnected to the chassis.
He got the girl's feet covered and walked her down the street—more properly, hallway. One parking lot
connected to the next, under the city buildings, so that it was possible to travel quite a distance without
coming up for air. If one cared to keep under the twelve mph limit, at any rate. The timing machines
reacted in a hurry against speeders.
She was coming out of it, but her responses were those of an automaton; her mind was still under. He
kept a good hold on her arm, in case she was pretending. Susceptibility differed.
His hotel presented no problem. It catered largely to Vicinc habituees, and would not pry into the affairs
of clients. Vicinc:Vice, Incorporated, now legitimate business. Once industry had gained the right to
police itself, vice had not been far behind. (That wasn't quite the way his schooltexts had put it, however.)
Anything at all was legal, so long as all parties concerned were willing and of age. Willing, anyway. Since
the victims were generally presumed to beun willing in cases of robbery and murder and, rarely, rape,
crime as a legal concept still existed; but Vicinc had mushroomed into the world's most prosperous
enterprise.
A Vicinc contact had provided Jeff with the devices he required to neutralize the McKissic estate
defenses, as well as the map and house layout. The merchandise had been good—excellent, in fact. He
had not been cheated there. Now he wondered: had Vicinc also sold its services to the other party? That
would have been good business—and a timely warning for McKissic. Yes, that must have been the way
of it; it explained everything. The warning to Jeff Font was even more timely. He would work alone
henceforth.
The girl was coming alert. Sleepnol usually freed the physical resources before the mental ones—a fact
every man knew well and most women purported not to know. He had to get her to his private cell
before she made a scene.
He marched her into the archaic elevator and punched for the tenth floor. The battered doors closed; the
intermittent light came on, and the lift shuddered tediously upward.
Jeff studied the girl closely for the first time. Her blue eyes flickered at him, not coquettishly, and her
close-cropped blonde head nodded. Now, given time to grasp the whole of it, he was appalled.
He had planned to kidnap Pamela McKissic—but not to harm her. He had hoped to persuade her of the
justice of his cause, so that she would remain with him willingly—and thus technically exonerate him of
any crime. Without her he had nothing. McKissic was too powerful to be brought down by ordinary
means.
Instead, he had a stranger. She had worn a black wig, and in the haste and dark he had never seen it fall
away. Probably the house defenses had been turned off, because there was nothing for him to steal. No
wonder it had seemed so easy!
He scrutinized her face. Yes, she was older than Pamela would be. This woman was pretty, and more
than pretty; she could have done well enough at Vicinc—as perhaps she had. Perhaps she had been
supplied, a physical double to Pamela, to bait the trap....
The elevator jerked to a halt. He led her out, hoping that no one would see them. It was not that there
