Résumé

Carlos Fernando Delacroix Ortega de la Jolla y Nordwald-Gruenbaum, un préadolescent héritier d'une immense fortune et de la propriété de la plupart des villes flottantes de Vénus, invite sur sa planète le docteur Léa Hamakawa, une spécialiste de terraformation ayant œuvré sur Mars. David Tinkerman, le spécialiste technique qui l'accompagne, secrètement amoureux d'elle, découvre que Carlos Fernando compte épouser Léa. En tentant d'en apprendre plus à ce sujet et dans le but de contrecarrer les plans du richissime Vénusien, David découvre alors pourquoi ce dernier tente de recruter Léa.
