Description
Stunning psychic science thriller by the bestselling author of X-Files: Ground Zero and X-Files: Ruins. Atlas is a struggling colony on an untamable world, a fragile society held together by Truthsayers. Trained from birth as the sole users of Veritas - a telepathy virus that lets them read the souls of the guilty - Truthsayers are justice. Infallible. Beyond appeal. Troy Boren is falsely accused of murder. He put his trust in the young Truthsayer Kalliana, until, impossibly, she convicts show more him. Her power is fading and nobody can work it out. A conspiracy is taking place that threatens to destroy their world from within. For without truth and justice, Atlas will certainly fall. show lessTags

A look at what happens when you set telepaths up to be judge and jury. Said psionics rely on drugs to have strong enough abilities. This, of course, can be manipulated. It is, in the case of one young woman. Forced to go on the run with a luckless city worker.
Fairly ordinary execution, but still somewhat interesting.
