Eugene Jack McGillicuddy has the psychic ability to answer any question asked to him and he wants it kept a secret. In order to hide his gift he's decided to work in the one profession tasked with answering tough questions: private detective. But alien ambassadors in the Galactic Congress have learned of his power and blackmail Jack to find an ancient artifact hidden on Earth. After his gift only gives him vague answers, he traverses the galaxy looking for clues and discovers the artifact grants godlike powers that could destroy the cosmos. With help from his accidentally sentient AI partner Eddie, dinosaur diplomat Kah, and genius, not-at-all-a-secretary Alice, Jack must embrace the profession he never wanted, stay one step ahead of the ambassadors, and somehow rescue the entire universe.

Being a genius isn't all it's cracked up to be. For nineteen-year-old scientific prodigy Alice Pemberton, whose hobbies include creating wormholes, it's actually awesome. But, in a galaxy teeming with aliens, being inquisitive can be dangerous. Desperate to unravel the secrets of the Krill, owners of a galactic wide spectral network containing the souls of the dead, Alice volunteered Eugene McGillicuddy to find a theoretical death particle. However, before she could reanimate Eugene, members of the Secret Service arrive to hire Eugene on a matter of national security. With science as her North Star, and Eugene out of commission, Alice must uncover a galaxy wide conspiracy, fend off the Krill who fear prying eyes into their monopoly of ghosts, and revive a quasi-dead Eugene McGillicuddy. On the knife edge of noir and absurdity, Alice Pemberton's Bureau of Scientific Inquiry will leave you breathless from this fast-paced thrilling adventure.
