Like the rest of us, she has eyes with weak receptors, memory that cannot record every detail and a brain that uses a fraction of its capacity. But Elena is about to become the first person outside the Encephalon to become Emergent and learn to use her brain to its full capacity. All against the Encephalon who fight and kill and destroy lives to keep their system in place, hide what's beneath the surface, protect their knowledge and, in doing so, protected the man who attacked Elena eight years ago...
What follows is an intense sci-fi action thriller about a woman on a quest for revenge facing one of the most powerful global elites the world has ever seen: The Encephalon.

Efferent
In the process of revamping this profile and this novel... thanks for your patience! (Estimated time of arrival: 12/01/19) "What are we?" I muttered in awe. "Efferent." He cocked his head slightly to the side. "Although, I do not believe that anyone is truly like you, Ardyn Danvers. You are something different altogether. You are something far more superior." ********** In a society dictated by intellectual prowess and where your status is determined by your level of brain function, Ardyn Danvers finds herself on her knees with a historically low percentage. With few choices left to make, and a dim future ahead of her, Ardyn is resigned to joining the rest of the bottom feeders in the gutter. But when an esoteric clinic of scientists develop a serum meant to increase tested brain function, they threaten to turn the nation's establishment on its head and heighten government control. Intending to level the division between the high percentages and the low, they had expected to use the serum to bridge the gap between the undesirables at the foot of the hierarchy to the elite standing at the pinnacle. What they did not expect, however, were the side effects. ********** © 2017 AaPThomps all rights reserved. COMPLETED FIRST DRAFT. Cover by @-wanderesComplete

She enjoys a comfortable life, protected from any threats against her. But when Amelie develops an ability without warning, she must try to keep it hidden from her family, her friends, and above all her father. Can she keep a secret?
