Stardate 5483.7: While investigating a region of space which has seen the unexplained disappearance of Federation, Romulan and Klingon ships at precise intervals, the Enterprise receives a song-like signal from the Taurean system, 20 light years away. Uhura is alarmed when Scotty, Kirk and other male officers – even Spock – are mesmerized by the musical message. Kirk leads a landing party beams to the planet of origin, but they do not return to the ship. When most of the male crew is incapacitated, Uhura and Nurse Chapel assume command of the Enterprise. On the planet, Spock makes a horrifying discovery – the female aliens hope to lure men to their world. Their male slaves will be drained of life energy, giving the women almost immortal youth. And with over half of a 430-person crew to choose from, the aliens should remain healthy for a long time…
