This short science fiction story with a surprise ending is an easy read. The ending may not satisfy all readers, especially male readers who may feel it is too mushy or schmaltzy.  It is about a beautiful and highly intelligent sixteen year old girl who is taken prisoner together with other girls between ages 14 and 25 by a race of beings from another planet to help them resolve a life and death problem they are facing. The story has suspense in that we wonder why the invaders want the girls, is their interest opposed to the interest of humans, and how, if necessary, will the girl outwit the invaders.
