Synopsis[]
A dangerous psychic called Soon is being held prisoner in a lunatic asylum in the Cursed Earth on account of his staggeringly vast powers. When Soon escapes and threatens Mega-City One, Judge Dredd and a party of cadets are sent to stop him, only for Dredd to be framed for murdering the cadets.
Continuity[]
The book features the return of another psychic called Hope, who first appeared in 1991 in the Judge Anderson story Engram (in 2000 AD # 712–717 and 758–763).
