Three spaceships, American, Russian, and Japanese, are launched within hours of each other to colonize Mars. Their mysterious disappearance piles up nightmarish problems for everyone on earth--especially for the wife, son, and twin daughters of the American Captain.

Did he defect to the Japanese faction that is determined to acquire Mars for themselves? Does a painting cut into four pieces, and a scientist who has lost his memory, hold the key? Or, the Captain's mysterious third daughter, Neelam, who cannot be found? How about his son's new "invention" that the Captain secretly took abroad, violating NASA's rules?
