Description
Adrian Kahler is the Shadowmaster, a psychologist turned detective. He has a Sherlock Holmes intellect, extrasensory perception that rivals Doctor Stephen Strange, and an ability to manipulate computers that even Steve Jobs would envy. From his fortress-like home, high above the Chesapeake Bay, he directs his two operatives. Stanley Egor is a former Navy SEAL who presents the visual impact of a Polish Shaquille O'Neal. Barry Sandler is a young empath, unable to control his evolving gift. He is an everyman caught between two supermen, Kahler with his extrasensory perception and Egor with his lethal SEAL skills. Barry says of himself, "My only useful talent is stubbornness." An invisible killer is stalking congressmen in Washington, D.C. The investigation leads to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. There Barry and Egor encounter Joanna Dembrowski, director of the Extraterrestrial Intelligence Project. She is supervising construction of the world's most powerful radio telescope. Her hope is to download knowledge from more advanced civilizations. A lethal knife, wielded by an invisible killer, appears out of nowhere and cuts down Joanna's supporters with bloody slashes. If Joanna's project succeeds, human civilization will be forever altered. It's in Kahler's interest to protect it. To do so, he must pit his intellect and the skills of his two operatives against an adversary as cunning as himself. Joanna is ultimately forced to choose between the good of humanity and her own desperate need. Barry and Egor must fight for their lives against a seemingly invincible enemy.
