Robert Cameron is going mad. 

As head of US Psychometrics, he has to defeat the European Falangists' assault on the sanity of Western scientists before our society collapses.

The Falange has attacked with new weapons which are scientifically impossible - but these weapons still work. And just examining their basic principles drives scientists mad. For the principles change... and change again.

It's as though an unseen grandmaster is continually changing the rules of a chess game where our freedom is at stake.

Only someone capable of thinking clearly in his nightmares can help... and help must come soon.

So Robert Cameron stands between us and our collapse into mass insanity.

And Cameron is going mad...
