A science fiction detective story set on a planet where women rule and men are kept as slaves.

On Planet Dominatrix only the women are considered human. Men are considered less than animals. They are property, male slaves, to be bought and sold. And to be used in any way their mistress desires. Since these men slaves are not considered human, just property, the killing of a male slave is not considered murder. If you kill someone elses man slave without their mistress permission then it is vandalism. But no one really cares about the dead male slave.

So when a man slave is shot during Festival no one thinks it is an urgent case. Sure, its mistress will want the killer to buy her a new slave, but there is no sense of urgency. Male slaves are not expensive on Dominatrix, they are not a "high value product", so the police are not keen to interrupt Festival for the investigation. Secure the crime scene, then tomorrow will do.

But one observant police officer realises there might have been a greater crime on Planet Dominatrix. What if the killer had not been aiming at the male slave, but had missed the intended target and killed the man slave by accident? What if the killer had been aiming at the slaves mistress, a woman, a real human being?

If that was the case it would not be vandalism, it would be murder!

What if the killer tried again? And what if this time a woman, a real human being, is killed?

If that really is the situation, then the police have a serious investigation on their hands.

One thing was for certain - Festival would have to wait this year.
