Summary "Beyond the Vanishing Point" by Ray Cummings is a science fiction novel written in the late 1950s. The narrative revolves around the adventures of George Randolph, who embarks on a thrilling journey involving atomic travel to a miniature world within a gold atom, where he must rescue his friends from a sinister figure, Franz Polter. The story blends elements of suspense, action, and speculative science, exploring themes of size and perception. The opening of the novel introduces George Randolph as he receives a frantic call from his friend Alan Kent, summoning him to Quebec under mysterious circumstances involving the disappearance of Alan’s twin sister, Babs. As Randolph travels to their location, he reflects on their shared past and the dark figure of Polter, who has haunted them since childhood after a mysterious incident involving the Kents’ father. As tensions rise and the urgency to find Babs escalates, readers are thrust into a world where science and the supernatural intertwine, setting the stage for a gripping quest filled with danger and intrigue, as Randolph prepares to confront the formidable Polter and unravel the secrets of atomic size manipulation.
