Summary
First printed in Galaxy, June 1968. Louis Wu, on sabbatical in deep space until he can stand the sight of another human face again, detects a slaver stasis box, the biggest ever found. But another ship is homing in on his target, and Louis finds himself gambling with the Trinocs for his prize... and his life!
