In this sequel to Albatross, a physicist learns to manage his special powers while under scrutiny from a world that once believed him to be a terrorist. Despite the most ruthless attempts of the US government, Dr. Rob MacAulay is not a refugee. Absolved of all crimes, which he never committed in the first place, Rob is still very much in the limelight, albeit on new soil. Only this time, Rob’s husband, along with two headstrong horses, a young neighbor girl, and the faculty of the Harvard physics department all pull him in unfamiliar directions. Teaching, researching, or harnessing the physics of the universe and controlling his tendency to “flinch.” But Rob’s strange power has an unintended effect on those around him.
