Have you ever seen a story of a chosen one who is destined to fight a great evil and protect the world from encroaching darkness? Well this isn't one of those stories. There are no chosen ones, no great hero of legend or fantastic technology to be discovered. However, there is magic, monsters... and demons. Even without great heroes though, ordinary people can rise to any challenge presented. What if the witch hunts were trying to find actual magic users that went into hiding? Why is every Elf we see in media White? And why don't we have more stories where every person can find a character that is just like them? This world is full of so many myths and legends that have rarely been seen. All stories have a grain of truth and maybe the tales of these myhical beasts have far more truth to them than we thought.....

A railway crossing, a headlight, an oncoming train, and a man standing paralyzed in its path. Joseph is in mortal danger, and his "mind" is computing escape solutions... Joseph Graybar, an FBI special agent lands in India to apprehend a criminal from the United States, and finds himself in the middle of a violent world, where the local police are hot on the heels of a gang of outlaws. His quarry, an Indian citizen, becomes the newest member of this gang, and raises the stake by a personal wager with the head outlaw, an illiterate cutthroat with an immense ego. Stuck in a foreign land with strange customs, and even stranger situations, Joseph becomes an impotent bystander, as the wager exacerbates from one gory act to another. The murder of a local movie actor can only be bested by an assassination attempt on a much grander scale; embroiling in its wake a homosexual commando, a scheming politician and a vengeful madam. To add to Joseph's frustration, a long-standing stomach ailment turns into a painful gastric ulcer requiring immediate treatment. His Indian counterpart suggests a local research institution and Joseph agrees to try it, albeit reluctantly as he is doubtful of local medical expertise. To his surprise, not only is he quickly cured of his ulcer, but is introduced to an astonishing world of international cutting-edge research where Indian know-how and American expertise blend to produce revolutionary remedies. His physician, Dr. Krishna, introduces him to a visiting American, Dr. Redding, and Joseph gradually discovers that the two physicians comprise a dynamic team who complement each others strengths - Dr. Krishna's judicious conservatism tempering the brilliant genius of Dr. Redding, in their unorthodox quest to alleviate human suffering. Little does Joseph realize that soon he will become an active participant in a radical experiment involving a brain implant...
