Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"Supermind" by Randall Garrett and Laurence M. Janifer is a science fiction novel written in the early 1960s. The story primarily revolves around FBI agent Kenneth J. Malone, who possesses unique talents such as teleportation and limited prescience. In a world grappling with bureaucratic inefficiencies and potential sabotage, Malone navigates a complex web of telepathy and manipulation that threatens national security. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to a meeting between Malone and Andrew J. Burris, the Director of the FBI, where they discuss inexplicable errors in government computer systems and the unsettling notion of an unseen force sabotaging legislative processes. As Malone investigates these anomalies, he faces increasing strangeness, hinting at a deeper conspiracy that may involve telepathic manipulation. The beginning establishes a blend of humor and intrigue, setting the stage for a narrative that promises both mystery and speculative fiction elements focused on the powers of the mind.
