Publisher's Synopsis
Jackson Alexander Steele, the young genius known as Jander, earned his Ph.D. in behavioral and quantum physics, yet so far has avoided employment at any of the mind-numbing organizations trying to recruit him. But when a mysterious visitor with telepathic skills risks her safety to persuade him to "activate" his own latent powers, Jander must weigh the unknown perils of accepting her proposition. Saying "yes" will put him through unspeakable agony and test his courage beyond anything he has ever known. What hangs in the balance? Only the future of the ungrateful humans of Gaea, and of civilizations beyond, to the farthest reaches of space. Does Jander have a choice?
