Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"Someone to Watch Over Me" by H. L. Gold and Floyd C. Gale is a science fiction novel written in the late 1950s. The story follows Len Mattern, a man with a troubled past, as he navigates the complexities of love and loyalty in a universe where hyperspace travel opens pathways to unforeseen dangers. The plot explores Mattern's relationship with Lyddy, a beautiful woman from his past, and introduces elements of alien beings and existential threats that could challenge their lives together. The opening of the novel introduces Len Mattern as he prepares to reconnect with Lyddy at the Golden Apple Bar. Initially filled with a mix of excitement and trepidation, he is reminded of their past and his commitment to her despite the years that have elapsed. As he confronts Lyddy amid the bustling scene, their reunion is marked by tension and unresolved feelings. The narrative hints at deeper, unexplained phenomena affecting their existence, including a shadowy presence that both intrigues and unsettles Mattern. As Len reflects on the unfolding dynamics of his life, the stage is set for a compelling exploration of love, responsibility, and the otherworldly forces at play.
