- Summary
- "The Company had brought peace and plenty to all on Earth--with comprehensive insurance against disease and disaster, war and want. Tom Wills gloried in his new rank as Claims Adjuster and relished his prospects of rising even higher. But then he met Rena, an enchanting young woman who turned out to be an Uninsurable--and involved in a conspiracy against the Company, to boot! To Wills, that was impossible, insane. Rena and her fellow conspirators had to be deluded...and it was clearly up to him to prove them wrong. The evidence he sought wasn't hard to find, so he began his investigation...and soon discovered that the real danger to the country, and the world, was the Company itself!"--Back cover
