Summary

A cloud of gas approaches the solar system on a course that in little more than a year is predicted to bring it between the Sun and the Earth, shutting off the Sun's rays and causing incalculable changes on our planet. Together with top-ranking experts in other fields, Chris Kingsley, Provessor in Astronomy at Cambridge is sent of a highly secret establishment set up to advise the Government. During the months that follow, the advisers, under Chris's influence, become less and less content to remain in a purely advisory role.
