First published as The Watcher by The Women's Press (UK) |

The planet Ojal has
been invaded. A mysterious vampire force has almost sucked dry the energy
pools on which the Ojalie depend. Controller Opu is charged with finding a
solution. Breaking Galactic law and coping with severe childcare problems,
her search ultimately leads to Earth where the characters involved are not
all what they seem. There is an unnervingly independent student, two sinister
spiritualists, a bullet-proof black policeman, and a youthful watcher apparently
over a hundred years old.
