Summary "The Martian Cabal" by Roman Frederick Starzl is a science fiction novelette written in the early 20th century. The story follows the protagonist, Sime Hemingway, a member of the Interplanetary Flying Police, as he navigates a complex political situation on Mars filled with intrigue and danger. From the outset, the narrative hints at a brewing conflict between Earth and Mars orchestrated by powerful financial interests, and it sets the stage for an exciting adventure. At the start of the story, Sime Hemingway struggles to sleep in an opulent Martian hotel, plagued by a sense of impending danger. His fears are confirmed when a mysterious young woman, claiming to be in danger, emerges from his mist-bath. She warns him of a plot against him and urges him to help prevent an impending war. As the opening unfolds, we learn of a conspiracy, with the girl, Princess Sira, suggesting that corrupt governmental forces, including the ambitious Scar Balta, are involved. The narrative immediately engages the reader with themes of political corruption, rebellion, and the personal stakes surrounding the characters, setting up a riveting tale of suspense and adventure.
