In Book 3 of the Rational Fear Series Kate and Jack struggle with the consequences of their choices as first Jack, then others are arrested and have to deal with various courts. It tears their family apart, sending Jack and Kate down very different paths: Kate remains dedicated to the cause of the Freedom Fighters while Jack sinks into self pity. New dangers await, quite in addition to the arbitrary enforcement of laws and misuse of the legal system by those who believe they are above the law. Kate continues to strengthen and expand her abilities to perceive and cause distant effects, making her unstoppable influence worldwide a source of trouble to everyone she interacts with. The joy and pain of living makes one ask the same question as Einstein posed: Is this a friendly Universe ... or at least a just Universe?
