About Missing man

George Sanford's only talent seems to be an odd capacity for guessing right the first time. His childhood friends grew up, advanced in school and in jobs. But George couldn't score well on tests, and there weren't any jobs in The City for people like George. Aimless, a near derelict, George meets his old friend Ahmed, now of the The City's Rescue Squad, and is swept up in the excitement of the hunt for a missing girl. And it is George who finds her, with his strange talent. And thus begins his perilous odyssey-which will come to climax when he is captured by a near insane young genius bent on using George's powers for the destruction of The City.
