Aprašymas

Greg Mandel, late of the Mindstar Battalion, has been many things in his life: commando, freedom fighter, assassin. Now he's a freelance operative with a very special edge--telepathy. In the high-tech, hard-edged world of tomorrow, he's the man to call when things get rough. But this time he may have bitten off more than he can chew. Stakes have never been higher.
Mindstar Rising is the 1st book in the Greg Mandel trilogy. The novel introduces the major characters in the series, most notably Greg & Julia Evans. It combines elements of classic detective novels with science fiction.
The novel centers round the growth of Event Horizon Company, founded by Julia's grandfather Philip Evans. Beset by industrial saboteurs, the company seeks help in the form of ex-military Mindstar Brigade turned private detective Greg Mandel. The company leads in rebuilding a 21st century England after the People's Socialist Party (PSP), a tyrannical communist government, had 1st crushed the country & then collapsed, leaving it in shambles. Initially hired to solve a mystery involving missing stocks from a zero-g satellite production facility, he's rehired to find the source of attacks on a stored personality of Evans after the industrialist's death.
