Cat, the halfbreed telepath hero of Catspaw and Psion, joins a research team on Refuge, homeworld of his mother's people, the Hydrans. Immediately, he finds trouble when he helps a Hydran woman escape human pursuers.The decimated Hydran population of Refuge is confined to a bleak "homeland," by a huge corporate state, Tau Biotech.
