Psi-high!Amy Ballantine has a talent . . . and sometimes it lets her know more than she needs to know.Guess I must be good enough looking. I can read it from almost every fellow that comes near me. I wonder why? I mean, why me -- and not Marjorie over in the Main Office? She's a sweet girl, but she never gets a second look from the guys. There must be some fine differential point I'm missing somewhere, but I don't think I'll ever understand it!But now the interest being expressed is not just the usual appraising and yearning -- for someone out there is talking about how her talents might be used -- and she's not at all sure she likes how things are shaping up.Alan Nourse (1928-92) was one of the most beloved of practitioners of science fiction during the form's Golden Age.
