| Summary | "Operation Lorelie" by William P. Salton is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. The story unfolds in a post-apocalyptic setting where the remnants of humanity navigate the ruins of a once-great city in the aftermath of a devastating war. The book likely explores themes of survival, human relationships, and the psychological impacts of warfare, woven into a narrative filled with tension and intrigue. In the story, two characters, Mark and Jarvis, embark on a dangerous exploration of a desolate urban landscape that has remained untouched since their war against invaders. As they scout the area, they discover signs of previous search parties that have gone missing. Their mission becomes increasingly fraught with tension as Jarvis becomes consumed by jealousy and desire over the prospect of a mysterious girl, ultimately leading to betrayal and violence between the two friends. The novel culminates in a chilling encounter that highlights both the physical and emotional dangers present in a world ravaged by conflict, leaving a haunting impression of the human cost of their survival.
