The
setting is the planet Kembel, whence information of mysterious happenings
has reached the Space Special Security Service. Agent Marc Cory
is dispatched to investigate, but almost at once disaster strikes: his
crew are cut down one by one by Varga plants which infest the planet.
But what Cory discovers is full of vital importance for Earth's future:
The Daleks are present in force on Kembel and their intention is to unify
alien races to wipe out humans. Cory is exterminated by the Daleks
but a tape containing the information he gathered survives.
