Plot introduction

Steve Frazer, a champion spacesuit racer on Earth's Olympic team, is headed to the center of the galaxy with the rest of the Earth team on board the Hellas. When they intercept a mysterious derelict spaceship, Steve volunteers to investigate. Once on board the ship, he discovers evidence of a non-human intelligence that seems to communicate through telepathy. Upon his arrival back to the Hellas Steve tells the others what he found, but no one believes him. Disqualified from competition on false charges, Steve realizes that he has become mixed up in a deadly game of interstellar intrigue.

Reception

Floyd C. Gale rated the book 2.5 stars out of five for children, stating that "Although melodramatic hogwash", it had "enough action and originality".[1]
