ONE TOUCH AND HE KNOWS ALL YOU KNOWBook One of the Evergreen seriesIt all starts with a touch. A brush of a hand, a casual bump of an arm, a firm handshake-that's all it takes for Jaylin Rowlin to absorb everything you know and everything you are. And you have no idea it's happening. Operating under the codename "Evergreen, " Jaylin uses his gifts to make a living from the city's seedy underworld, but his only goal is to stay free and stay alive. He's developed a habit of constant paranoia-never sleeping in the same space twice, always disappearing into the crowded streets of Manhattan.
When a stranger hires him to take on an impossible task for an unbelievable payday, Jaylin suddenly finds himself in a world filled with corporate espionage, international intrigue, and a very real and deadly danger that could threaten billions of lives. There are people who know what Jaylin can do. They will stop at nothing to control him. AND HIS ONLY ALLIES ARE ALL IN HIS HEAD "I opened one of [Kevin Tumlinson's] novels and immediately was hooked.
I mean, he knows what he's doing. A writer who, bless him, knows how it's done."- Orson Scott Card, Hugo and Nebula Award Winning Author of Ender's Game "Few writers can blend science, history, and sheer suspense the way J. Kevin Tumlinson does. He's a true craftsman of the thriller, and a storyteller with both vision and heart. Every new book is an adventure that will keep you up all night."- Kevin J.
