Summary "Legacy" by James H. Schmitz is a science fiction novel written in the late 20th century. The story centers around Trigger Argee, a young woman of remarkable skills and lineage, who becomes embroiled in a web of intrigue involving mysterious plasmoids and governmental secrecy. Through her strong character, readers are likely to explore themes of agency, trust, and the complexities of scientific discovery. At the start of the novel, the narrative introduces Trigger as she navigates her environment at the Colonial School on the planet Maccadon, engaging in practice with a handgun. The tranquility of her setting is soon disrupted as she experiences a grabber raid, leading to her discussions with Doctor Plemponi and Mihul, who note the recent unrest. Throughout this portion, Trigger expresses her concerns regarding the Plasmoid Project, the absences of key figures like Commissioner Tate, and the growing tension that surrounds her. As the opening unfolds, Trigger's determination to uncover the truth drives the plot forward, setting the stage for her unfolding adventures amidst a backdrop of danger and intrigue.
