    About this ebook

    Inspired by a now-declassified United States government-funded research program to test psychic skills....

     

    What is so special about student Maddy Walker in 1978 that makes the Inner Sanctum of Atlantis psychics so determined to recruit her? Is it a plot to use her in a government-sanctioned psychic spy research program or is it part of a 50-year Soviet plan in 1950 to penetrate the U.S. government? Are the psychics really able to read minds and move objects with their thoughts?

     

    The answer chases Maddy, a budding psychologist, through the next 3 decades of classified secrets, deep cover ops, and spies. Introduced to the so-called psychics by her psychology professor, Dr. Ben Pynchon, expert on mystical transient death experiences, Maddy observes the psychological coercion used on dissenters and non-believers, and her concern only grows with time and exposure to the indoctrination efforts.

     

    Pursued by a well-hidden Soviet spy network that targets Vietnam War vets and college students, Maddy is drawn into a world that doesn't play fair. Using psychological games, propaganda, and covert ops, the spy network works to achieve their goals of transforming the US government, and once caught in their web, Maddy finds her life forever changed. Now Maddy has to find a way to survive, even as the Inner Sanctum works hard to control every aspect of her life, in order to maximize their opportunities to gather defense secrets. No US government agency is safe from the long reach of the well-funded, well-connected spy network.

    Leaving a trail of victims and dead bodies in their wake, they make progress, thanks to a cooperative Congressman and his staff. It won't be easy to contain the damage to national security. How far will the bad guys get before they're stopped?

    S. M. Barton

    I write espionage thrillers. These are not necessarily for the faint of heart. Spies do what they do to achieve their goals. There is normally a lot of excitement, some very hairy twists and turns, and some unconscionable behavior. These are adventures driven by circumstances beyond the control of the protagonists. Survival is the name of the game. It’s not always easy to know who the good guys are and who the bad guys are, let alone what kind of havoc that will result from all the mayhem, murder, and madness. If intrigue is your thing, you will want to check these out. Some were inspired by declassified CIA research programs. As Sara M. Barton, I am the author of several fast-paced cozy mysteries that are laced with humor and romance, but they are of the traditional style of cozy mysteries. The amateur sleuths typically reside in small towns and villages. The crime could take place in your neck of the woods. It could be your next-door neighbor who is found in a heap on the side of the road. It could be your dog that gets the first whiff of that cadaver and alerts you to its presence.
