Summary
Lynne disliked the man from Mars on sight. Yet drawn by forces beyond her control she let him carry her off to the Red Planet.

Lynne Fenlay had had a few headaches in the course of her twenty-four years. But she had never had a headache like this.
There had been one as a result of her first field-hockey practice at the seminar, when she was twelve and the hard rubber ball caught her squarely above the left eye. There had been another, five years later, when she had used a guided trip to Manhattan during the Christmas holidays to experiment with a bottle of creme de menthe in the unaccustomed solitude of a hotel room.
