Levi Martin was an average American guy who went off to college at S.U.N.Y., New Paltz with high hopes of becoming a geological engineer. Although ill-fated priorities and misguided goals destined him for academic failure, his heritage in the Martin Clan had prepared him for a different kind of life. His ability to think outside the box caught the attention of Dr. Elias Jefferson and soon Levi found himself training in the art of escape and elusion. Having been led to believe that he was becoming a star player in Jefferson’s research project and new book on problem solving, the boy from Bodega, CA steadily proved himself worthy of recruitment into one of the most clandestine organizations on the planet.
