| Summary | "One-Way Ticket to Nowhere" by Leroy Yerxa is a science fiction novel likely written in the early 1940s. The book follows the thrilling escapades of Jeff Blake, a former space traveler who finds himself embroiled in a web of crime and intrigue after he returns to Earth to assist his troubled twin brother, Wade. The narrative explores themes of loyalty, family dynamics, and the challenges of confronting crime in a futuristic setting. In the story, Jeff Blake is summoned back to Earth by Holly O'Toole, who reveals that Wade is entangled in deep trouble surrounding a gang led by the nefarious Grudge Harror. As Blake attempts to rescue his brother and thwart Harror’s plans, he discovers an elaborate scheme involving the hijacking of a mono train—Mono 6—carrying key figures, including Wade and his love interest, Dauna Ferrell. After a series of action-packed encounters, including a fierce confrontation with the gang, Blake's resourcefulness sees him take on a daring disguise and outwit both the gang and his own brother's misguided actions. Ultimately, the revelation of his identity leads to a redemptive twist, bringing closure to the conflict while setting the stage for new beginnings. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
