520 _a"Satellite System" by H. B. Fyfe is a science fiction novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around George Tremont, a business consultant navigating the complexities of a futuristic interstellar society, dealing in ideas and inventions. The narrative unfolds in the backdrop of space travel, painting a vivid picture of life inside spaceships and interactions on distant moons. The plot centers on Tremont's treacherous journey as he is hijacked by three individuals—Bill Braigh, Ralph Peters, and Dorothy Stauber—who seek to steal his valuable ideas stored in a case. After a fierce struggle, Tremont finds himself jettisoned into space, left to drift with limited air supply. Employing clever tactics, he manages to get back to his ship, outsmarting his captors and taking control of the situation. The story culminates in Tremont’s resourcefulness as he sets up a unique satellite system to maintain the upper hand over those who betrayed him, showcasing themes of survival, ingenuity, and the complexities of trust in a treacherous world.
