Social living requires the elimination, or at very best, the modification of many elements necessary to survival in “nature”. And when an emergency arises, very often it is the person who would be considered a “criminal”, in other situations, who alone is able to cope with the necessities. If we manage to eliminate “violence” from human affairs, what will we find when a need for “violence” arises—a need outside of man’s artificial control of his environment?

Five citizens of Terra were being held on other worlds -- and the ultra-secret Department 99 existed only to set them, and others like them, free. Chapters alternate between stories of five Terrans being held by the authorities on alien planets and the efforts of a secret Terran government department to come up with plans to free them. In the midst of the planning and problems, a huge power outage causes even more trouble for D-99 as they struggle to keep the trouble from a problematic agent whose previous sufferings cause him to have severe claustrophobia and to react violently from it.

Excerpt: "The main trouble with the planet Boyd III was one satellite too many. Had there been no third moon, large and close, the tides might have been less confused and the weather more predictable. Certain peaks of atmospheric wildness, recurrent coastal catastrophes, logical but distressing customs of the natives—lack of these factors would have made Boyd III a much more attractive world."
