Summary "S.O.S. Aphrodite!" by Stanley Mullen is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. The book revolves around Steve Coran, an ISP patrolman who is assigned a dangerous mission involving space pirates and a government conspiracy. The narrative features elements of space travel, intrigue, and complex character relationships, showcasing a struggle against an organized group working to sow chaos in the interplanetary realm. The storyline follows Steve Coran as he is tasked with recovering sensitive documents from a fugitive tied to a series of space transportation crimes while he embarks on a journey aboard the emigration ship "Aphrodite". Along the way, he inadvertently becomes involved with Gerda Mors, a woman desperate to reach Venus in search of her brother, who is implicated in the crimes. As tensions escalate, the vessel collides with an asteroid, leading to a series of confrontations with pirates and ultimately revealing underlying connections between the characters. The tale intricately weaves themes of loyalty, moral ambiguity, and survival, culminating in a dramatic conclusion that challenges Coran's personal beliefs and relationships.
