Summary
A winner of the Nebula Award combines the science-fiction and legal thriller genres in the story of the unprecedented trial of an alien for the murder of a human scientist, a case with cosmic implications. Reprint.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: When a disabled spaceship enters Earth's atmosphere, seven members of the advanced Tosok race are welcomed by the world. Then a popular scientist is murdered, and all evidence points to one of the Tosoks. Now, an alien is tried in a court of law-and there may be far more at stake than accounting for one human life.
