Michael Owens needs a DeLorean...

Another great action sequence with the scrum around the machine and an astoundingly inconvenient time for Leva to have an epiphany.

And nothing like a last-minute transporter sequence to pull our heroes out of the line of fire. I'm a little sorry Owens didn't manage to bring Frobisher in - both to face justice and to know exactly what happened to him. Never count a mad scientist dead until you've done the autopsy... And even then you can't be too sure.

Very fun story - Thanks!! rbs

Author's Response: A bit of Deus Ex Machina there in the end. Another theme you may have noticed in Star Eagle which seems to have started in this story is people falling off cliffs. That seems to be happening a lot. I think it's because I have a fascination with vertical space, something we didn't get to see much in televised Trek because it's difficult to do well on a limited budget.
