  <abstract>"Earth Is Missing!" by Carl Selwyn is a science fiction novel likely written in the mid-20th century. The plot unfolds in a future Earth, encased in a thick layer of ice, where a monstrous figure known as The Bear threatens to wreak havoc amidst a society still grappling with the remnants of civilization. This tale captures the struggle not only for survival but for the redemption of a world lost to desperation and crime.  The story follows Johnny Steel, an incorruptible police officer determined to stop The Bear and his gang, who have been terrorizing the populace with a string of robberies and murders. Steel's journey leads him to uncover the truth behind The Bear, ultimately revealing not just a criminal mastermind, but an elaborate plot tied to advanced scientific undertakings that aim to move the Earth itself to a new sun, a concept devised by Dr. Albert Harmon. As Steel confronts various enemies, including the surprisingly powerful Lois Harmon, he learns that the challenge is more than mere crime-fighting; it is a battle against a conspiracy that threatens the very fabric of their existence. The climax reveals intense action, moral questions, and a society on the brink of rediscovery, culminating in a struggle for a brighter future.
