L'energia sulla Terra non è più un problema, la Lunar ha trovato il modo di generarne in maniera pulita e non dannosa sfruttando il materiale di cui sono composte le rocce presenti sul lato oscuro della Luna. A sorvegliare il lavoro dei macchinari è stata posta una base sul satellite naturale della Terra abitata unicamente da un computer tuttofare dalla voce umana e da un uomo, solo, quasi arrivato al termine dei suoi tre lunghissimi anni di contratto e sempre più vittima degli scherzi che stanchezza e solitudine gli procurano. Sarà un incidente quasi mortale a scardinare il meccanismo di inganni che si cela dietro il suo lavoro mettendolo a contatto inaspettatamente con un altro se stesso.
