Publisher's Synopsis
Orphans with mensa level IQs go missing. The US government intends to mine their intelligence for the greater good. P.I. Nick Sperry investigates the disappearance of Sidney Ryder. Nick's girlfriend, Melissa, brought the child to Sunshine Children's Home, D.C. eight years ago. Nick isn't fooled when the federal orphanage claims to have no record of her son. As an ex-CIA agent, Nick understands the immoral capabilities of the US government. Fueled by suspicion, he discovers Sidney isn't the only lost orphan. Meanwhile, Dr. Jack Kerwin begins to work with Tabula Rasa, a miraculously effective think-tank based out of the Center for Interactive Research and Solutions, or CIRAS. Under the direction of Tabula Rasa, Jack's research on childhood leukemia could save countless lives. But, his enthusiasm recedes when he notices strange things lurking behind the center's shiny walls.
