The Trikon Deception

In the near future: Earth is an ecological nightmare, and humanity may well go the way of the dinosaurs. But overhead orbits salvation. A vast metallic island in space, Trikon conducts research too risky to be held on earth-research which could save the planet. Yet Commander Dan Tighe discovers that the Trikon's major project is espionage. Its crew is split into warring factions; its scientists-consumed by greed, lust and drugs-run the lab for their own gain. Only Commander Tighe can save the Trikon-and only Trikon can save the earth.
