AMBER ALERT
It is the end of WW2, and the British Government investigated the use of paranormal powers as an instrument of espionage and counter-espionage, as did the other major powers. <br /><br />When Churchill heard that the Russians had ‘liberated’ certain German doctors and scientists who had been using human guinea pigs in a death camp, he urged the British team to attempt to achieve the impossible, at least to be able to match the new enemy’s progress.<br /><br />As history relates, no one really succeeded, and all research funding dried up as the threat of super-brains receded when the cold war settled down to a Mexican Standoff. But when two of the gifted British team died in a car crash, no one thought of their child, conceived when both parents were under the influence of an enzyme that enhanced his parents’ mental powers for a very short time. <br /><br />Andrew Masters is more than gifted, he is truly unique, but his powers could prove to be either a threat or a blessing. But for Andrew, his powers are secondary to his personal problem – either to be the son of his parents, or the girl of his dreams. Andrew has the ability to transform dreams into reality – thus Amber takes her first tentative steps in the real world, while poor Andrew is forgotten. <br /><br />The world is a very lonely place when one is so different, but all things can be turned to one’s advantage. Helped by a wonderful woman who is as lonely as she, Amber finds her powers to become someone else come in very handy as she grows to adulthood and she finds a niche in which she can fulfill her potential during the Cold War.<br /><br />The world will never be quite the same again.<br /><br />
