Series: The Talent #2
Description
As director of the Jerhattan Parapsychic Center, telepath Rhyssa Owen coordinated the job assignments for psychically gifted Talents.

And when two Talented children were discovered to have some very unusual --and unexpected-- abilities, she realized that she would have to reassess the potential of all Talentkind...
