A scientist compounds an antigravity material which is stolen by a foreign power. An overused theme by the 1920s. However, the novel is "unusual in stressing physical properties of the metal and its commercial exploitation, rather than using it as a device for adventures. As fiction, routine work, although the author seems to be better versed in the physical sciences than most authors who wrote about radium at this time." -- Bleiler, Science-Fiction: The Early Years 1236.
