## Description

" My lover, my protector, my friend, my doctor, my brother - they're all killing me." Peter Roos cannot help knowing the thoughts of those around him. A rare physical condition has given him that power. Now he has " heard" about the government's secret plan to give up control of America to the military - to build an underground city for themselves in the event of a nuclear attack. Unfortunately for Roos, the government knows he knows. And the project's sponsors - including his senator brother - have no choice. They must get him out of the way - permanently!
