Towards the end of the school year, Airlie gets two intriguing invitations: an offer of a scholarship to a new middle school with 'opportunity classes' in exotic subjects like Quantum Psychology, and a free place at a summer camp run by Inspector Humble. The two invitations and her emergent psionic talents are clearly connected, and Airlie can't resist the opportunity to learn more about her gifts and to meet others with PsyQ powers at the camp.

But Airlie ends up in a desperate race to rescue one of her new friends.

This story is set in the "Appearance of Magic" universe.
