Logan and his friends make an unexpected stop when they see a hooded woman laying unconscious in the desert. She thanks them for helping her, but runs away for fear of being seen in the company of stranges whose faces are uncovered. Others of her kind appear, discovering the runners and their hovercraft. Logan, Jessica and Rem are immediately recognized as runners and are detained – until Francis shows up to explain how Logan and Jessica have broken the laws of the City of Domes. The leader of the desert dwellers decides that Logan must face the consequences for his actions, sentencing the runners to death – but the Sandmen have their own ideas about justice, and now have to fight for their own lives to “extradite” their prisoners.
