Dead Giveaway is a science fiction novella by Randal Garrett, first published in 1959.

Logic's a wonderful thing; by logical analysis, one can determine the necessary reason for the existence of a dead city of a very high order on an utterly useless planet. Obviously a shipping transfer point! Necessarily...

A domed, abandoned alien city is discovered on an uninhabitable Centaurus planet. The artifacts are a scientific windfall. But why was it abandoned? Where are the aliens?

Total Running Time (TRT): 1 hour
