Fugitive In Transit

Description for FUGITIVE IN TRANSIT by Edward Llewellyn:

When Peter Ward saw the lone woman standing in the ruins of an obscure temple on a remote Greek island and singing Sappho in the original Acolic Greek, he may have thought her a goddess, but he would never even have imagined her true identity.

For Ruth Thalia Adams was a singular entity.  Although she appeared as a beautiful athletic young woman, no one was even sure of her species.  And “Alia” as she was called by the Galactic Transit Authorities had more mysteries than just her species.  No one on Earth knew what it as she had done, but to the Auld Galactic Marshal, she was the most dangerous individual in the spiral arms and had to be caught.  He had chased her through several hundred worlds to no avail, but now he had her cornered---for Earth was the end of the line!
