Written in the first person by a female android, Arda., she is an agent for the Terran Federal Bureau of Investigation and is assigned to guard the major Galactic writers of the six galactic races, meeting on Earth ( in Manhattan !!). The meeting is being chaired by the famous Earth writer, Fortizak. The other writers are from the Locrian, Naxian, Samian, Crotonite, and Cephallonian planets.
