The colonists knew the risks about Jegg-Sau. With a flimsy atmosphere, no mineral wealth and exhausted soil, only the strongest and most determined could hope to make a home there. But with nowhere else to go, they went ahead, allegedly funded by a stock of valuable relics and art treasures stolen from Earth. But the colony failed. Jegg-Sau was deserted once more, a home only to carrion and rusted dreams. But Bernice Summerfield believes the relics remained, and she's come a long, long way in search of them. What she'll find is that others have reached Jegg-Sau before her. She'll find herself cat's-paw in a dark outpost of frailty and obsession. And she'll find the robots. Written by Stephen Cole. Directed by Edward Salt. Cast: Lisa Bowerman (Bernice Summerfield); Michael Kilgariff (Robot); Paul Shelley (Kalwell); Katherine Holme (Elise Kalwell).
