One of the many interesting things Randall Garrett did in his long, long career was write a series of novels and stories set in a world where magic is a science as sophisticated as physics or chemistry are in our world. Sorcery is a licensed field. And in this tale Kenneth Malone -- sometimes known as Sir Kenneth of The Queen's Own FBI--has had problems with telepathic spies, and more than somewhat nutty telepathic counterspies. But the case of the Vanishing Delinquents was at least as bad. . . .
This eBook has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. There has been a nuclear war on Earth, and from the ashes rose a new society with a world government run from the capital city built on Manhattan Island after Manhattan was obliterated by a "sun-bomb." Far out in space, a four-eyed, eight-armed alien known only as "the Nipe" is looking for someplace to set down and repair his damaged, gradually failing spaceship. Nipe crashes on earth and begins to wreak carnage and death as it tries to survive and to find a way off the planet. No one survives contact with the alien and no one can determine the reasons for its actions. The only solution appears to be to develop an enhanced human to confront and defeat the alien.

Even hardened veterans of the Psychodeviant Police don't look forward to the possibility of having their minds taken over, controlled by some outside force. It had never happened to Houston, but he knew that Arthmore had been through the experience once. It evidently wasn't pleasant. By the time the dapper baronet stepped out of the machine and paid his driver, the whole area was surrounded by and filled with the well-armed, silent, and careful agents of the Psychodeviant Police. "Poor fish, " Houston thought wryly. Another Controller had been apprehended by the Psychodeviant Police. Another deviant, already tried and found guilty, was ready to be exiled from Earth and imprisoned on one of the Penal Asteroids. "There's just one thing I'd like to know, " Houston thought blackly. "What in the hell's going on?
Professor John Hamish McLeod, Ph.D., Sc.D., went halfway across the galaxy to see after a zoo of earthly wildlife the aliens bought from us. And when he came home, life went to heck. Literally! He wrote a book describing the experience. He had to! The government had confiscated what the aleins had paid him. The book, of course, had become a bestseller here at home.

That he was a phony Swami was beyond doubt. That he was a genuine prophet, though, seemed . . . but then, what's the difference between a dictator and a true prophet? So was he. . . .
