| Summary | "Home is Where You Left It" by Adam Chase is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. The narrative revolves around Steve Cantwell's return to his native village on Sirius II, where he discovers that his childhood home has been deserted and its inhabitants are in peril. The story unfolds against the backdrop of colonization and the conflict between humans and the native Kumaji tribespeople, exploring themes of home, loyalty, and the consequences of betrayal. The plot follows Steve as he returns to find his community in disarray after a tragic incident involving a poisoned well that has forced the colonists to flee. Faced with the imminent threat of the hostile Kumaji attempting to kill the escapees, Steve is determined to help. Alongside Mary Whiting, the daughter of a recently turned traitor, Tobias, Steve embarks on a harrowing journey through the desert to locate him and ensure the safety of their people. The story culminates in a confrontation that tests their morals as they grapple with loyalty, survival, and the reality of their circumstances, ultimately leading to a poignant acceptance of love and the potential for a new beginning.
