THE WILDERNESS AFFAIR
What is hidden below a personality and what is real is a question that drives our Service Agent Alack Troyus into the folds of deception.  Working undercover to find a kidnaped Judge and her staff on the primitive world of Microsus III, Alack enters this native society and wrestles with the arbiters of doom.  His secret activity befriends a young lady and together they unravel a wilderness cult that spells destruction for the planet.

THE PERMANENCE AFFAIR
A look into the far future can undermine your foundations of present day security.  The things you are familiar with are wasted away by the erosion of eons.  For Alack Troyus time gets twisted and distorted on a journey into the unknown.  Such future revelations can be a blessing or a fall into chaos where history knows no mercy.  The relentless march of ages finds Alack grasping for his sanity.

THE FLORENTINE AFFAIR
Not all that glitters is desirable, and not all desirable objects are refined as a pair of pretty lips.  So learns Alack Troyus on vacation bathing in the paradise rays of Lason Vogon.  Acting unofficially, opens his own investigation seeking the answer to saving Vogon's society from criminal predators.  The slimy cast is in place, the curtain about to fall and paradise is about to be shuttered.  But Alack plays his last card allowing the dice to fly high.

THE MILITARY AFFAIR
Death to those who undermine the Amazian Army, so Alack Troyus discovers.  Working with the Praetorian Police, operating undercover, Alack unveils a deadly conspiracy.  Even the most highest and decorated can still claim a field victory, one that will allow him to fall through the cracks of Imperial Justice.  But, the battle scene is a court room, the pieces are in place before the bench and the hand of Amazian jurisprudence can sink or swim.  It is Alack clinging to a legal life raft that will save the day and the lives of billions.
