Transport between Earth and the solar colonies is tightly regulated, but the exile knows a shortcut: the top-secret transvection machine, an experimental device that could theoretically be used to teleport men from planet to planet. Vander Defoe, the tool&rsquo;s creator, is busy securing it when he feels a pain in his stomach: His appendix is about to explode.</DIV><DIV><BR /> Defoe dies in the operating room during routine computerized surgery, and the case falls in the lap of the Computer Investigation Bureau, which has jurisdiction over all computer-related crimes. As the team tries to determine who corrupted the system that killed Defoe, it finds that in this case, all roads lead to Venus.</DIV><DIV><BR /><I>The Transvectioon Machine is the first book in the Carl Crader Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.</I></DIV></DIV>
