Joe turned the last page of Meditation and Psychokinesis. He’d found it fascinating and had devoured it in hours.
The young Italian was a quick study and could recall every word, line and sentence he had ever read – verbatim. Which was no small amount of information considering that he had been reading a book a day before most children had learned to walk.

His obsession with reading was part compulsion and part shield. His books protected him from the outside world and today he felt like he needed more protection than ever.
