This is a short but quite dramatic book. I liked it. It is fast paced novel and it is finished before it becomes boring.
Set in 24th century it depicts society where some people are selected for their ability for extrasensory perception (basically mind reading). These people are called Espers.
In this society no premeditated capital crime has been recorded for 70 years due to fact that "planning" stages of the crime are easily "peeped" by Espers and prevented.
So, the book is about a rich and powerful, but mentally disturbed person who decides to murder his rival business cartel head.
Story develops quite rapidly and its plot resolution is quite different from what one would expect, one might even say slightly anticlimactic or even confusing.
Still I would recommend it for its shortness and fast pace.
