The Entity Game

A senator and his aide are found dead in their Washington office, both victims of cardiac arrest. The following day, another senator dies from an aneurysm. Officials call the deaths natural, but FBI agents suspect something sinister on Capitol Hill and bring in Aurora Donati, a psychometric detective known as Rory. By touching a person or object, she can draw out information, a talent that makes her well suited to making sense of the unexplainable. This time, she starts to suspect she is up against forces no one has faced before.

When the next attack hits far too close to home, Rory's world is turned upside down. She becomes tangled in a dangerous mix of terrorists, corrupt politicians, and secretive intelligence agencies. Their scheme traces back to experiments conducted in a Soviet laboratory during the Cold War and later refined with modern science. Rory is not the only one chasing the truth. Gabriel Marshall, a CIA operative, is pursuing it too, with an agenda and abilities of his own.

The two find themselves in a lethal contest with an assassin who seems to have supernatural powers, one that pushes both Rory's and Gabriel's gifts to their limits in a deadly duel. With time running out, Rory must anticipate and answer every move, and the final confrontation unfolds inside the US Capitol itself.
