NEW! LaCost: The Evolution of Jason

What is the ultimate potential of the human mind?

Jason Patrick LaCost is gifted with a genius IQ and the ability to feel what other people are thinking. He is passionate about this mission to solve some of the planet's biggest problems. As head of research for a large biotech company, Jason makes discoveries that can revolutionize agriculture but may pose a threat to the corporations that control and, some would say, corrupt the planet’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. Sarah becomes the real star of the show as it becomes more and more 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.
