Author: Wallace West
Date: 1964-00-00
Type: NOVEL
Language: English
Note: Tuck gives this as a novelization of two previously published stories, while Contento gives it as a collection. Verifier please determine which type is correct. This is indisputably a novel, based on three previous stories ("The Phantom Dictator" (Astounding, 1935), "The Time-Lockers" (Science Fiction Quarterly, 1956), and "BEMA" (Science Fiction Quarterly, 1957)). The novel is essentially an expansion of "The Time-Lockers", with "The Phantom Dictator", much changed, grafted onto the ending of the book; and "BEMA" incorporated as a small episode in the book.
Synopsis: Arnie Davis, a lobbyist working for the Tempora, a parallel Earth into which Earthmen travel using time credits stored in "time-lockers", becomes involved with the mysterious Priscilla, and with Senator LeFevre, attempting to forestall various threats: the Mob's assault on the US government, and the manipulations of Earth politics by Temporans and by another group of aliens.
