First Born - Paperback

by Richard La Plante (Author)

From his first breath, people know that John Reed is special. Gifted with an uncanny awareness and ability to communicate, he also possess the power to heal. Before long, a local priest heralds the infant as a new messiah, inadvertently drawing the attention of Neo Tech, part of a clandestine organization whose dark web extends from major multinational corporations to the vaults of the Vatican. Neo Tech believes that John Reed is neither holy, nor even human, but the first alien-human hybrid. They employ the beautiful Casey Lee Armstrong, an elite "remote viewer", to make psychic contact with the baby. What Casey discovers changes her world forever--and makes her a threat to Neo Tech. With the baby missing and her life in danger, Casey's sole ally is a renegade police detective, Michael Caruso. Together, they pursue John Reed through a maze of death, deceit, and disinformation to a place where realities collide.
