Captain Adam Chase of the Exploratory Space Patrol has discovered what seems to be the perfect world for human colonization—Mentalla II, a planet with Earth-like conditions and breathtaking natural beauty. But as he explores the landscape, he becomes increasingly fascinated by a massive, eerily human-shaped rock formation that dominates the terrain, and his closer investigation reveals something that challenges everything he thought he understood. A desperate man in an asylum now begs a skeptical journalist to believe his account of what happened next, insisting the world needs to know the danger he encountered.
