Introduction
The Enterprise is assigned the task of transporting the Medusan ambassador back to his homeworld. The Medusans are a peaceful people and the most skilled navigators in the quadrant. However, their physical appearance is so revolting to humanoids that seeing one drives a human irrevocably mad. Travelling with him is his Dr. Miranda Jones, a brilliant, but aloof psychiatrist. Trained on Vulcan to develop her innate telepathic powers, she is travelling with the ambassador to a permanent post on the Medusan homeworld. Why would a human chose to live her life among such people? What secrets is she or the ambassador hiding? What unseen dangers await the crew?
They can send a man to the Galactic Barrier, but they can't design a visor with a nose-hole?
