Synopsis
Max Shannon is an Enforcement officer in New York. His natural mental shield protects him from Psy intrusion, which limits how far he can rise in a society run by the Psy. He is assigned a murder investigation in which the victims are the closest advisors of a Psy Councilor. As the inquiry moves forward, it draws him into a relationship with a Psy woman who is close to a severe mental breakdown. He must decide whether he can help her without losing himself, while the case leads him closer to the highest levels of Psy power and to people who would prefer the truth stayed hidden.
