Morton Cargill is about to die for a crime he committed 400 years ago.
Lieutenant Morton Cargill was brought from the past to be punished for his crime, an accidental murder that took place centuries before. Now he is in a world ruled by the Shadows, an evil people who can pass through solid walls and remain untouched by weapons. But the Shadows are being threatened by the Planiacs, a celestial race that lives high above the earth and to whom the preservation of Cargill's life means their own existence.
Now Cargill is hunted by one race, held captive by the other, caught in a deadly clash of minds and machines -- in a terrifying world where he doesn't know the rules!

Edition Notes
Ein Mann des 20. Jahrhunderts in der Stadt der Schatten
Als Morton Cargill, Offizier der US-Armee, fahrlässig den Unfalltod eines Mädchens verursacht, greift die INTERZEITGESELLSCHAFT FÜR PSYCHISCHE WIEDERHERSTELLUNG ein.
Cargill wird in das Jahr 2391 versetzt, wo der Tod auf ihn wartet – auf Antrag einer Ururenkelin seines damaligen Unfallopfers. Doch die drohende Exekution bedeutet für Morton Cargill nichts anderes als den Anfang einer Serie von phantastischen Ereignissen. Der Mann des 20. Jahrhunderts nimmt teil am Kampf der Zwischner, der Schweber und der Schatten, dreier Gesellschaftsformen aus der Zukunft.
Cargill spielt eine entscheidende Rolle in diesem Konflikt und überwindet die Barriere des Jenseits.
Ein klassisches SF-Abenteuer.
