| Summary | "Healing Rays in Space" by J. Harvey Haggard is a science fiction novel likely written in the mid-20th century. The book revolves around the implications of space travel on healing and the unique properties of solar rays. Set against a backdrop of interstellar commerce and personal conflict, it explores themes of ambition, desperation, and the lengths a father will go to save his daughter from the deadly Venus plague. The narrative follows Keith Randolph Marshall, a powerful space businessman whose daughter Alyce is afflicted by a mysterious illness. In a desperate attempt to save her, young Rufus Thallin kidnaps Alyce, believing that the healing properties of solar rays in space might cure her condition. As they embark on their perilous journey, they are pursued by the Space Police and soon encounter pirates, leading to tense confrontations. Rufus struggles with his motivations, initially viewing Alyce as a means to an end but gradually developing a bond with her. The story unfolds with high stakes and dramatic dilemmas as Rufus fights for their survival, ultimately testing the boundaries of love, sacrifice, and redemption in the vastness of space.
