Subject Matter
Genres: science fiction
Character(s): Professor Elliott Saunders; Marcus Drake; Tom (caretaker); newspaper reporter
First Line: At first, it was a tiny speck--almost a nothingness--seen only through a powerful microscope!
Synopsis: Saunders and Drake find a microscopic animal that has been destroying their mineral specimens. They try to kill it and after many attempts leave it overnight under a positive ion beam. Next morning the lab is destroyed and footsteps lead through a hole in the wall. They follow the trail to a town under construction. The town caretaker escapes and warns them but then a ray from the creature melts their Jeep. Bullets also melt but then they notice that the windscreen of the jeep hasn't melted. They use a portable negative ion generator behind glass to shrink and destroy the creature.
