J.G. Keyes / Paperback / Oct 1998
Long before the Babylon 5 space station brought Humans face-to-face with alien races, they discovered an extraordinary breed among their very own ...
The year is 2115. Shock waves follow in the wake of astonishing news: science has proven the existence of telepaths. Amid media frenzy, panic, and bloodshed, Earth's government steps in to restore order -- and establish tight control over the newfound special population ... by any means necessary.
Ambitious senator Lee Crawford spearheads the effort, overseeing the creation of the Psi Corps -- an elite unit charged with tagging and monitoring all telepaths "for their own protection." But the real agenda behind the crackdown is one of government control. Many question the telepaths' origins, while others view them as a coveted weapon. As the Corps tightens its iron grip, the stage is set for a cataclysmic confrontation -- one in which the future of Earth will be decided.

J.G. Keyes / Paperback / Mar 1999
The son of their greatest heroes -- he was destined to become their darkest enemy ...
Born in the fire and terror of the twenty-second century, the Psi Corps -- a group of elite telepaths used to control their own kind -- became a finely tuned instrument of oppression. Only the underground, under the determined leadership of Matthew and Fiona Dexter, held out any hope for freedom.
But in 2190, the underground was shattered. the Dexters were killed, and their only son -- the brightest hope for the future -- was claimed by Psi Corps. To sever all connection with the past, the child was given a new name: Al Bester. From that moment forth, to Bester, "the Corps was mother, the Corps was father."
Bester was a telepath of exceptional ability. Ambition drove him to be the Psi Corps most ruthless operative and to seek to become its master. To attain that goal, he would pay any price, betraying love, friendship, and humanity. And one day, he would step into the void beyond death, to confront his own soul -- or what remained of it ...

For Alfred Bester, "the Corps was mother, the Corps was father." But his Corps was doomed ...
Under the ruthless command of Alfred Bester, Psi Corp's reign of terror reached unspeakable heights -- and touched off a civil war among the telepaths. Corps minions fought renegade defectors -- a resistance movement determined to overthrow Bester's monstrous regime. But the tide was destined to turn ...
Interstellar Alliance President John Sheridan intervenes to stop the bloodshed as a new Psi Corps rises from the ashes. Its first mission: to hunt down and neutralize war criminals, individuals such as Bester himself. Once feared across the galaxy, the dreaded hunter becomes the fleeing prey -- with Michael Garibaldi in hot pursuit.
Underground and on the run, Bester builds a new life on the ruins of his secret, sinister past. But as the forces of justice -- and vengeance -- close in, he must confront the hell he created, choose between surrender or survival at any cost, and prepare to make his final stand ...
There is nothing as dangerous as a predator who has been cornered and has nothing left to lose.
