In the story, Jeff Engel, a member of the Missing Persons Bureau, follows a mysterious stranger and unexpectedly plunges into a futuristic society that views him as an alien. After being apprehended by the local authorities, who are on high alert for extraterrestrial threats, Engel learns that he is not only a suspect but also potentially a target in this paranoid environment.
