Flaw in the Crystal

by May Sinclair

In May Sinclair's novella 'Flaw in the Crystal,' Agatha Verrall embarks on an affair with Rodney Lanyon, seeking a connection beyond the physical. However, Agatha possesses an uncanny ability to manipulate the minds and even physical states of those around her. Initially, she uses this power to draw Rodney closer, but as her abilities grow, she becomes increasingly aware of their potential for both healing and destruction. The story explores themes of marriage, love, and the complexities of human relationships, while also delving into the potential dangers of uncontrolled psychic abilities.
