In the year 2051, Earth stood on the brink of acceptance as full member of the Galactic Milieu, a confederation of worlds spread across the galaxy. Leading humanity was the powerful Remillard family, but somebody--or something--known only as "Fury" wanted them out of the way. Only Rogi Remillard, the chosen tool of the most powerful alien being in the Milieu, and his nephew Marc, the greatest metapsychic yet born on Earth, knew about Fury. But even they were powerless to stop it when it began to kill off Remillards and other metapsychic operants--and all the suspects were Remillards themselves.

De Galactische rassen van het Bestel verwelkomen de mensheid in hun midden. Een nieuwe Gouden Eeuw lijkt voor de mensheid te zijn aangebroken. Maar de Rebellen hebben hun twijfels over deze nieuwe Eenheid en de teloorgang van het individu.
Marc Remillard, de zoon van Teresa Kendall en Paul Remillard, vangt ver in het heelal een noodkreet op. Teresa is zwanger, maar het Bestel staat de geboorte van het kind niet toe en wil haar tot een abortus dwingen. Maar Marc en Teresa weten dat de ongeboren vrucht nu al over immense geestelijke krachten beschikt. ( )

I will praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made! My soul knows how marvelous are your works. You were aware when my very bones were formed, Growing secretly inside my mother's body As a plant's root grows beneath the earth. You knew me before I was born. The days of my life were all written in your book Before they had ever begun.
—Psalm 139
Whereas in the familiar closed systems of physics the final state is determined by the initial conditions, in open systems, as far as they attain a steady state, this state can be reached from different initial conditions and in different ways.
—Ludwig von Bertalanffy, A Systems View of Man
God writes straight with crooked lines.
