Lara and Jorex are seeking political asylum on Earth and asks Buck for his help. However, the Lozerian SaTrap is prepared to go to any lengths to keep Jorex under his heel – even murder!
Synopsis
Buck is invited to be a special guest at the 2492 Olympics. Shortly after arriving on Mykos, Buck is drawn into a "game" of political intrigue as Jorex Leet, an athlete from the planet Lozeria attempts to defect, with the aid of his lover, Astrosled champion, Lara Tizian, who approachs Buck for help .
