Traitor’s Choice

di Paul W. Fairman (Autore)

Scott Miller, 2026

Reed Kendall is a scientist trusted with the most guarded secrets in human defense, a man trained to put duty above everything. When a masked voice reaches through a secure channel and proves it holds his wife’s life in its hands, that training begins to crack. The demand is simple: deliver the plans to a devastating new weapon. Refuse, and she will die slowly, far beyond his reach. Agree, and he may be handing the means to destroy his own world to an enemy that has waited decades for this chance. Kendall makes his choice under pressure that never lets up. He walks through guarded corridors, signs out restricted files, and prepares to disappear into enemy territory. Every step appears to confirm the worst—that he has chosen personal love over planetary survival. Yet something in the way he moves, something in the risks he takes, suggests a deeper calculation. As the enemy prepares to strike, Kendall stands at the center of a plan no one else can see, knowing that if he has misjudged even one detail, there will be nothing left to save. Paul W. Fairman was a prolific contributor to mid-20th century science fiction magazines, publishing in titles such as Amazing Stories and Fantastic Adventures. He wrote dozens of short stories that often placed ordinary people under extreme pressure, forcing them into decisions with immediate and irreversible consequences. “Traitor’s Choice” reflects that strength, placing a single man inside an impossible situation where timing, nerve, and precision matter more than any speech or declaration.
