CHAPTER I
What defense could she raise against mutant
science—telepathy, invisibility, teleportation—especially since Earth
was not aware of its danger!
When Julia (she pronounced the name without the "a" at the end) was twenty-four, she inherited $22,000 from an obscure uncle in California. After deducting taxes and administrative expenses, the California State Court ordered the money transferred to her bank account. It came to $20,247.50.
She had been working in a local book store. "I haven't the vaguest idea why it came to me," she told the curious and covertly envious customers."I guess he just didn't know anybody else."
She was a small, slender girl. Her eyes were bright and enthusiastic, her open smile so friendly that it was infectious.
The first afternoon when the money was actually in the bank under her own name, her father asked, "Well, what are you going to do with it?" He was genuinely curious. He owned his own home and was about to retire on a pension. He felt uncomfortable in the face of $20,247.50—for which he was not able even to imagine a use.
Julia said, "I haven't exactly made up my mind yet." She intended to shop around for a husband, but she did not say this. She thought it would sound very callous to say: I'm going to buy me a husband: I've always wanted one.
