Corporate fixer Huey Rawlins gets paid a lot of money to solve problems, especially problems that require a busted knee or a bullet to the brain. On a chilly dawn a couple of days before Christmas, Huey arrives in a run-down neighborhood to find his latest problem has fled, disappearing into the snowstorm and leaving a corpse behind. His clients don’t care that the cops are investigating the death, they only want teenage telepath Jake Adamson, and they want him alive.
Detective Lester Fawkes has solved his share of murders, but this time two kids are missing—fifteen-year-old Jake and his younger sister Meg—and something about the case is screwy. Maybe it’s the brutal murder of a convenience store cashier in her bed, the foil coating Jake’s room, or the victim’s brother not playing straight with them.
Or, maybe, it’s the hitman for hire who’s also trying to find the missing kids.
Genre: Science Fiction
