It's a civilized planet for human beings. Ladies meet in the afternoon to take tea at the club. Their men have respectable pursuits, such as running plantations or serving in the military. And the Blues, those native to the planet, play their proper role serving these civilizing angels. For Eleanor, though, the news that one of these placid Blues has risen up and killed his master means so much more than it does for the ladies at the club. For tonight, her husband is coming home, and he... likes to watch. Can she play his game, enact his fantasy, while living in terror of this servant race? Can her fear, mixed with desire, guide her to a true understanding of the strange, the alien?
