The Rowan

by Anne McCaffrey

The Rowan was one of the strongest Talents ever born, but she was also lonely and without family, friends -- or love. Then a telepathic message came from a distant world facing an alien threat, a message sent by an unknown Talent named Jeff Raven, and be it power, danger, or love -- the Rowan is about to meet her match.
