Know More
Britta Tate lost her mother to an EASA-sponsored mission in space, so she’s naturally hesitant when the EASA-uniformed officers come for her at age 13 and demand she train as a psychic intern. When her brother goes missing, she’s determined to use her advanced senses to find him. Years later, just as she finally starts to pick up his trail, she is drawn into a more critical quest, one that will take her further than she could possibly have predicted, and one that will require her to connect with interdimensional allies, or her home planet will too be lost.
A Word from the Author
From a young age, I’ve been interested in the use of a sixth sense and have read extensively about psychic abilities and related topics. Combining this interest with my love of science fiction, I set out to write a story that would inspire people to imagine a future in which having highly attuned senses would be advantageous. I introduced higher beings, other dimensions, corrupt leadership and conspiracies to help create a fast-paced story of adventure and mystery in deep space and beyond.
