David Starr, Space Ranger introduces the series' setting and the main characters. The novel is set in 2100, when humanity has spread among the worlds of the Solar System as well as planets orbiting other stars. The most powerful organization in the Solar System is the Council of Science, which deals with mysterious threats to the System's people.
David Starr is an orphaned biophysicist who has just qualified for membership in the Council. In a restaurant in Earth's capital city, Starr sees another diner die. He learns from his guardians (and fellow Council members) Augustus Henree and Hector Conway that there have been some 200 deaths in the last four months. Although there has been no trace of food poison, all the victims died while eating produce raised on Mars. Conway and Henree fear that the deaths are part of a conspiracy to panic the people of Earth. Starr travels undercover to Mars to try to learn what connection the deaths have to the Martian Farming Syndicates.
