After brokering a truce in a war she never wanted to be a part of, Jennifer learns that children are dying because the medicine they need is being hijacked en route. Then Jennifer discovers that people are remarkably reversing their ages on her home planet of Markem just as democracy is finally taking hold.Are the hijackings and reverse aging a plot by the opposition party on Markem to destroy democracy? Or is there a new alien race responsible? There were rumors about telepaths that could kill with thought, but Jennifer had never gone up against them before-until now.
Can Jennifer deliver the impossible: punish those responsible and save democracy on Markem?
