Special Patrol Service officer John Hanson (hero of ten Wright stories) stumbles upon a mad inventor who has traveled many centuries to Hanson’s beachfront Denver in order to obtain knowledge that will let him become the absolute, unquestioned, supreme master back in the 21st century.
I could not help wondering, as we settle swiFTLy over the city, whether our historians and geologists and other scientists were really right in saying that Denver had at one period been far from the Pacific.
