A good story, with very good characterization and flashes of an almost Merrittesque poetry...
The story concerns itelf with THE BIG JUMP from this system to another sun - Barnard's Star. The first expedition returned: one man alive, the others missing, and that one man dying of some ghastly sort of radiation sickness.
Comyn, tough space-bum, sets out to find what happened to Paul Rogers, close friend of his ... eventually making the second Big Jump himself. What he finds at the end is not only a brilliant science fiction gimmick, but good, solid writing.
