Illuminous Jim Ballentine

Miracles happen! She was told that it was impossible; that the consequences of her wild youth had cost her dearly; that being barren was the price. But fate continued to deal Commander Steve Jacobsen and his beautiful wife, Sybil, a very different hand. Amidst mounting political pressures, as rival corporations try to force the World Council to make the IEC hand over its advanced technology, Commander Jacobsen is abducted. As Colonel Valerie Hartess and the Intrepid Enterprises Corporation's Command Staff step up to fill the void, other unexpected revelations come into the blinding light of day. Could the price of this miracle be too high? Could it really be a curse? Is the fickle hand of fate about to unravel all which Steve and Sybil have striven for so long to keep together? As they are forced to deal the hand they've been dealt, Steve, Sybil and the rest of the IEC must once again pull together, if they are to persevere and endure the revelations of Illuminous!
