Naval combat pilot Lt. Cassandra Morse was blown out of the sky by a mysterious space weapon. When she awoke from a coma, she had the ability to accurately dream future events. Unfortunately, like her mythological namesake, no one believed her. After she successfully predicted a double homicide, she moved from crank to a media sensation. Her life was turned on its head when she met an odd little man who claimed to know why…

Lt. Cassandra Morse comes from a family of Admirals. She is a young combat fighter pilot. When she was flying, she and the plan became one. She is asked to perform a test flight in front of government representatives to decide if they should switch defense contractors and go with this experimental plane. Her grandfather decides at the last minute to fly with her. While they are taking the plane through maneuvers, a bright light comes down from the sky directly in their path. A dormant Star Wars device takes out the plane. It is three weeks before Cassandra is found floating in a raft in the ocean.

 

After her accident, she begins to have vivid dreams and sees the ghost of her grandfather. These dreams are prophetic and when a couple of dreams come true, Cassandra does everything she can to avoid sleeping and dreaming. She drinks to excess and sleeps with lots of men.  She is a mess and out of control.

 

Carrie Finch works for the National Intelligence Agency. When she runs internet search on her computer, she gets a hit on Cassandra Morse. She tells her supervisor, Donovan, about it but he doesn’t show any interest. The report she writes is sent up the chain and before she knows it, Finch is called to the Assistant Director’s Office. Because of the information she discerned, things happen quickly for Finch, and she is immediately moved upstairs.

 

The book was fast paced, it was written in third person point of view, and the characters were well developed. I loved this book and hope the author plans to write more about Cassandra, Finch, and the rest of the cast of characters. The author included environmental protesters, domestic terrorists, savvy journalists, and so much more. If you enjoy action adventures with a political twist and outspoken tech support, you will like this one.
