The Music of Creation — Chris Allen

In a universe where music is a narcotic, an alien must protect a brilliant Irish composer from abduction. Music from Earth has a profound impact upon alien species who use it as a mind-altering drug. Our planet is fertile ground for a ruthless off-world cartel called the Abductors who hunt musicians to sell as commodities. These kidnapped musicians are then forced to perform for those wealthy enough to purchase them. Countering the Abductors are the Protectors, who have long dedicated their energy to guarding musicians from these ruthless traffickers. Lindsey is from the planet Thales and is a Protector waiting for her first assignment. When a brilliant teenaged composer is discovered in Ireland, a boy of such incredible talent his music can alter space, the Abductors plot to capture him. The Protectors must rush the inexperienced Lindsey to protect Ryan Reilly, his mother, and his sister from the predatory Abductors. Against the turmoil of an intergalactic war, Lindsey must succeed before Ryan's ability destroys the universe.
