In these pages, you will meet: Sgt. Kip McCorbin, who must choose between the military's special-ops sixth-sense and the love of his family. Courtney Brandt who lies frozen on a glacier, but warm to the touch, as her killer is already claiming another victim. Valerie Akwasi, who stumbles into the deadly side of a vineyard. Michael Graves, who could be your best friend or your worst enemy -- but who doesn't care because to him you're just an experiment. Phantom Sense . . . is a lesson in how to write a short. . . From the start it grabs you and never lets go. In every way this story reminded me how good Science Fiction shorts can be.-Tangent Online Lovett is probably Analog's best regular writer.-- Locus, July 2011 Lovett and Niemann-Ross are 'two halves' of one of the best science fiction "writers" Analog magazine has ever discovered.-Three-time Hugo nominee David R.
