Messenger One II. Cicada Children, #10

Dr. Julia Creed has had a very bad dream. A psychic child that used to be one of her research subjects, long thought dead, has told her to start killing indiscriminately and not stop. Her only allies are an irascible ex-co-worker and her adopted daughter, who is another one the psychic children cloned from the cells of a slumbering alien that fell from space years ago. Thrown back into a world of unsolved mysteries, Julia must navigate dark forces she doesn't understand or else may suffer a fate worse than death.
Matthew Atkinson brings you a strange and delightful sci-fi SHORT STORY from his collection, Cicada Children, expanding on the story of "Messenger One."
