Summary
When a high‑ranking, ultra‑powerful telepath slips through the heavily‑screened doors of the Psi‑Corps headquarters, the agency’s most feared enforcer, Bester, launches a frantic hunt that brings him and a cadre of interns to Babylon 5. Their arrival is met with cold suspicion from a station crew still scarred by the Psi‑Corps’ past abuses, and the newly‑arrived telepath’s trail is anything but clean. As bodies begin to accumulate , Bester insists to Security that the rogue’s psychic signature is too weak to have caused the murders. Yet the evidence, and a lingering scent of the Psi‑Corps’ own propaganda‑laden corridors, suggests a deeper mystery. Will Bester uncover the source of the killings before the next victim falls, or will the shadowy machinations of Psi‑Corps turn him into just another casualty of its own relentless bureaucracy?
