THE GREAT SEBASTIANS

Rudi and Essie Sebastian have the power to read your thoughts... or so they claim. This husband and wife mind reading act have been touring Europe for the last twenty years, mystifying audiences with their seemingly unnatural abilities. When the pair return to Czechoslovakia, the nation of Rudi's birth, in 1948 they find themselves in the midst of a nation in turmoil. The nation has just elected a communist government and fear and suspicion permeate every corner of society.

The Great Sebastians are entertainers, not politicians, and inadvertently find themselves embroiled in the intrigues of General Zandek, who believes that their mind reading may be more than just an act. When lives are on the line, and friends turn into foes, can the Great Sebastians use their wits to escape the net of circumstance they find themselves in?
