Mind-Fire

by Vincent B. Broome

Susan Stevens is the most intelligent human being that has ever existed. She can remember anything she has ever read, seen, heard, or thought. In a split second, she can do calculations in her mind that would take super-computers months to do. Even more incredible, with each passing day, her mind seems to expand further, potentially reaching almost limitless abilities.Yet she feels herself cursed. Socially maladjusted, withdrawn, lonely and abandoned at childhood, Susan lives a quiet, hermit-like existence working in a small-town library. Why is she so different from everyone else? How did this happen? Are there others like her?Then one July day in 1990, her world explodes into a violent whirlwind when those responsible for her condition decide she is an experiment that must be ended. Susan goes on the run, using her incredible intellect to evade the killers on her trail. But when she becomes entangled in an even more dangerous plot that involves a long-dead Nazi war criminal, she goes on the offensive, determined to stop those responsible, even if it means confronting one of the most evil mass murders in history – and he’s not even human anymore…
