Two hundred passengers board a high-speed train expecting an ordinary journey.
They never arrive alone.
When a psychic anomaly triggers alarms deep within Helix Hollow, the Circle-an elite team of gifted operatives-discovers the unthinkable: every mind aboard the train has been merged into a single, terrified collective. Thoughts bleed together. Fear spreads instantly. Individual will begins to disappear.
And somewhere among the passengers is the man responsible.
As the train races toward catastrophe, the Circle is forced into a battle unlike any they've faced before-one that cannot be solved with brute force or overwhelming power. The antagonist does not seek destruction. He offers something far more dangerous: relief. A world without guilt. A future where no one bears responsibility alone.
But salvation without consent is still control.
Inside the train, fear becomes contagious. Outside it, institutions begin to listen. What starts as a single experiment threatens to evolve into a doctrine capable of reshaping society itself.
Charlotte Reigns, a powerful clairvoyant, must navigate fractured visions where futures collapse into one another. Mason Ward, a non-psychic strategist, fights a war where the enemy's greatest weapon is persuasion. Marin Vale races to counter a system designed to hijack human choice itself-before the idea spreads beyond the rails and into the world.
As the Circle closes in, the line between mercy and manipulation blurs. Stopping the antagonist may save lives-but allowing him to finish may spare humanity from the pain of choosing.
With time running out and two hundred lives hanging in the balance, the Circle must decide what they are willing to protect: certainty, or freedom.
Mind-Jack Hijack: One Thought, Two Hundred Lives is a high-stakes psychic thriller that blends supernatural suspense, advanced technology, and moral tension into a relentless, cinematic ride. Perfect for readers who crave psychological thrillers with psychic powers, team-driven investigations, and page-turning momentum that never lets up.
This is not a story about control.
It's about what happens when giving it up feels like mercy.
