Synopsis ~
Lured by exotic gems and valuable oils, the crew
of the space trader Solar Queen landed on the newly discovered planet Sargol,
only to find their most ruthless competitor there ahead of them. Still, they
tried for fair trade, even according to the sly rules of the feline natives -
whose beauty and grace were equaled only by their determination to drive a hard
bargain with off-worlders. But after satisfactory trading and uneventful
take-off, the Solar Queen discovered a plaque on board, the treacherous work of
someone who had been on Sargol. Now they are forbidden by Federation rules from
landing on any inhabited planet - and their supplies are running dangerously
low!
