Produktbeschreibung

Bounty hunters race to find a powerful psychic in this classic science fiction adventure by the award-winning author of Soothsayer.

People across the galaxy have feared Penelope Bailey ever since she was a child. She has the power to see the future and manipulate events-and minds. Governments and criminals sought to control her, and hundreds of bounty hunters like the Iceman once tried to capture her. But Penelope eluded them all and disappeared . . .

Fourteen years later, the Iceman now runs a tavern. He spends most days listening to customers' tales of adventure and idle gossip, until one day, a visitor arrives with quite a story to tell. She is Penelope's mother and would like the Iceman to retrieve her daughter from the planet Hades. Of course, it is a task easier said than done. Soon an assassin, a secret agent, and an outlaw cyborg are searching for the missing psychic. And they must all figure out how to handle a target who can predict their every step . . .

Perfect for readers of Alan Dean Foster, Timothy Zahn, and Joe Haldeman

"One of those rare novels that pulls you in so quickly and effectively that you'll end up reading it in a single sitting." -Science Fiction Chronicle
