I really liked the premise of this. The government created a virus that unlocked psychic potential in humans, then kept them locked up in the Centre testing their abilities, until they were fully trained as weapons.

I enjoy books with psychic elements. That aspect of the book was interesting and well done, though I do wish more detail had been given to explain the abilities of the agents.

Aside from that, I was kind of disappointed in the way the story developed. It started out really strong but the threads seemed to unravel as the novel wore on. The killer was easy to identify and the romance wasn't very well developed.

Having said that, I'm intrigued enough to want the next book. If the writing tightens up just a bit, this will be an excellent series.
