What is the ultimate potential of the human mind?
Jason Patrick LaCost is a visionary scientist with the ability to access what other people are thinking. Driving his research is his deep passion to solve some of the planet's biggest problems including hunger and disease. As head of research for a large biotech company, he develops revolutionary discoveries in quantum genetics. But these advances pose threats to the special interests and powerful people that seek to maintain control of the world's food system.
Things get tense when a corporate shark wants to steal LaCost’s discoveries. Fortunately, Jason's boss has his back, and he calls on an old friend—and security specialist—for help and extra muscle.
LaCost falls for teacher Alison Russo and together they take the commitment to adopt seven-year-old Sarah, who becomes the real star of the show as it becomes clear that she is an evolved human whose intellect is way off anyone’s charts. LaCost and Sarah develop telepathic communication and an interpersonal bond that normal minds have never before achieved. As Sarah matures, so do her amazing abilities. To some, she is an angel from God, but to others that wish to do her harm, she’s their worst nightmare.
LaCost’s continuing research leads to bigger and more important discoveries but also to more dangerous confrontations with corporate bad guys who threaten his work, his family, and his life. LaCost and his super-group of friends and extraordinary human beings band together to fight off the threats, becoming like family in the process and paving the way for further adventures in artificial intelligence and other scientific frontiers.
