It sounds very much like the novel 'The Universe Against Her' by James H. Schmitz. The heroine is Telzey Amberdon, a telepath herself. A fascinating young lady, and unusually self-reliant and smart for a heroine written in 1964. Schmitz was very good at creating believable strong women. I wish he were still writing... has anybody heard of him recently? (N.B. There are several other stories and novels about Telzey, and Schmitz is, of course the author of 'The Witches of Karres'. I'm looking for more recent books.) -- Betsy Perry decvax!dartvax!betsy
