In time, from some of the women who had been near these shunned areas, the first totally hairless babies began to be born.Their difference was not at first noticeable. But eventually, they became known as "Baldies," with another new and terrifying difference: the Baldies were telepathic!From then on they were hated by normal humans, and sometimes hunted like animals.These five stories are the saga of their struggle for survival and their desperate search to find a safe means to give the power of telepathy to humans, so both kinds might live peacefully side-by-side.
