Excellent Read! The characters in this novel are extremely well developed and draw you into their world - a world of psychic gifts, espionage, and supercharged sexuality. Rebecca Miller was an unusual child who demonstrated psychic power and the ability to heal by touch at a very early age. Her father was so disturbed by his daughter's gifts that he divorced her mother to get away from his own child. By the time she was 23, she had an international reputation and a psychic consultation with the wife of an American senator, whose future she saw as the President of the United States - if he does not go on a trip to England prior to the election.Despite her profound gifts, Rebecca has problems: her only friend is her administrative assistant, electronics don't work around her and no man has ever been able to deal with her gifts for very long. She's lonely and frustrated, so decided to go speak at a metaphysical conference and take her first vacation in, well, forever.  The conference is a set up and Rebecca is abducted by a group of Special Operatives, led by the exotic and compelling Commander Kelly Nolan.Rebecca's gifts are a necessity to the Special Ops mission. A certain American Senator, whose wife, Rebecca consulted with is scheduled to land in England in a few days. Is the information Rebecca saw a couple of years ago accurate? Will this Senator be the next President of the United States or will her vision of his assassination come true on the runway?The plot and several subplots intertwine in a complex and satisfying way. Even the secondary characters are well developed and their stories are fascinating as Rebecca's life and gifts meet theirs. I'm looking forward to more books from Julie Harris.
