Overview

"An adventurous twist of genre" ~ Midwest Book Review

The Rothston Institute can secretly manipulate the decisions of anyone in the world – from ordinary friends to government leaders – using the abilities of its operatives known as adepts. Having discovered that she possesses these special skills, college student Kinzie Nicolosi is training to assist them to protect humankind from destruction. A construction worker fired for an industrial accident? A Congressman ruined in scandal? Necessary consequences of honing her skills for the greater good. But Kinzie brings more than her remarkable talent to Rothston. She bears an unexpected power that rivals Rothston's own... and the clash may be something none of them can control.

The Kirkus Review calls Foreseen "A worthy sci-fi thriller à la Dean Koontz."

Editorial Reviews

"First time author Smiles has devised a convincing supernatural culture. Her novel is so richly detailed that the reader accepts that this separate society of adepts exists and has its own storied hierarchy ... By continually paying such close attention to detail, Smiles has proven that she's skilled at crafting a nuanced page turner.

"A worthy sci fi thriller a la Dean Koontz."

Kirkus Review

Foreseen mixes coming of age with quantum foam, romance with political conspiracy, in this able science fiction story...Foreseen makes you think as you enjoy. It's both speculative and edge-of-your-seat. In short, it's the kind of fiction I like and would recommend highly.

Goodreads - Michael Williams

Those with unnatural talents use them, for good or for ill. "Foreseen" is a blend of fantasy and political thriller, telling of the clash of 'adepts' who have grown to using the political powers of the world to assist their own. Kinzie Nicolosi, a college student who always felt an other, realizes his own potential power and finds them as much a blessing as a curse. "Foreseen" is an adventurous twist of genre, much recommended.
