==Synopsis==
Told through a series of letters, news reports, medical charts, and government memorandums, "The Riddle of Jeremy Roman" begins by telling of the rehabilitation of Bryan Katz, the sole survivor of the previous story who had been driven to insanity by his experiences. It then goes on to describe the experiences of two brothers, Joshua and Jeremy Roman, seamen serving aboard the battleship USS Connecticut in 1919. These men were the sole survivors of an attack by the star-creatures encountered by Katz decades earlier, although they later died from bizarre and horrific complications as a result of physical contact with the beings.
