Hardcover with Dust Jacket in good condition.

Dust jacket is tanned with a few stains; general wear and some chipped edges.  Some foxing to panels but fully in tact and housed in a protective mylar jacket. 

Book itself is very good.  Immaculate cover with leatherette spine;  reads good as new with some tanning and a hint of foxing to exterior text block.  Perfect vintage reading copy!

First, a man and a woman are subjects of a top-secret government experiment designed to produce extraordinary psychic powers. Then, they are married and have a child. A daughter. Early on the daughter shows signs of a wild and horrifying force growing within her. Desperately, her parents try to train her to keep that force in check, to "act normal." Now the government wants its brainchild back - for its own insane ends.
