New Novel Focuses on Premonitions and Terrorism in Near Future
Rasputin's Nephew takes the reader into the not-so-distant future, where psychotronic terrorism threatens the nation and premonition is reality. Rudy Styne is a reporter for the posh 5th Avenue publication Modern Times Magazine, who wakes one morning from a strange, foreboding dream. Later in the day, the dream comes true, and Rudy is left bewildered. He decides to get to the bottom of these premonitions by doing an article for the magazine on the subject. He travels to Bhutan to meet with an avatar and then interviews Abdullah Manu, a renowned Egyptian superpyschic who can move objects with his mind and read people's thoughts. Along the way, Rudy uncovers a diabolical plot to murder neuroscientists and topple the West with an army of cybernetic soldiers.
At an international symposium on psychotronics in Italy, Rudy and his girlfriend, Chessie Barnsworth, meet the amiable neurophysicist Dr. Imo Bern. Rudy and Chessie are shocked to learn that the young doctor is an associate of notorious ex-KGB agent Georgi Boshtov, who they suspect is in charge of the brutal crusade to destroy the West.
It is a race against time and a test of minds as Rudy dashes to stop Boshtov from destroying the western world, but Rudy tumbles deep into trouble when he learns to his horror that he has become their next target.

Praise for Rasputin's Nephew
An espionage thriller, (a la Tom Clancy).... You write with great intelligence and authority. Nicolette Phillips, New Vision.
Like a journey through the Major Arcana [of the Tarot], Rasputin's Nephew takes the reader into the bizarre and mind-boggling world of the paranormal. I enjoyed Marc Seifer's book thoroughly. Uri Geller, Paranormalist Extraordinaire.
This is a terrifically original book, with elements of satire as well. Dr. Stanley Krippner, author of Song of the Siren.
Rasputin's Nephew is so believable that it seems to have it's own aura. It frightened me, but not enough to overcome the desire to finish it. Wow! -- Prof. R. Vangermeersch, University of RI.
