Essef - Harry Bronson & Ellen Palermo had been orphaned when quite young. Attractive, intelligent children, they had grown into independent, resourceful adults. But as they matured, Harry & Ellen found they could read minds - and in New York, that proved a dangerous & frightening experience. Harry had always had the healt hy scepticism that any scientist brings to the subject of "supernatural powers," but soon even he was forced to admit that something extraordinary was happening. Then Harry discovered that he & Ellen - lie all the gifted ones - were doomed to horrible, hoepless madness. But while he sought for a solution, his own unwelcome gifts proclaimed beyond a doubt that there was no solution!
