Professor Grant gives the Federal Men a forecast of the future of crime detection in the format of an imaginary story. In the year 3000 AD, when there is a disturbance at the Mountains of Mars, Jor-L, ace sleuth of the service, uses his one man space flyer to track it down. There he meets Nira-Q, the bandit queen. She captures him to use as a hostage when she tries to seize a space ship with a priceless radium cargo. Later, when captured, she and her Martian gang undergo brain operations, emerging "sane, normal beings with no desire for crime."
