The Psychopomp Book No. 1 (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781471778452)

Joel Magnolia is a teenage prodigy. With the help of his college roommate Sang, Joel designs molecule-sized robots that can be injected into soldiers in order to enhance their performance. As fiercely intelligent as he is, Joel can't figure out a way to talk to girls. Instead, he resorts to anonymous love letters to Maria Avellana, another brilliant grad student, who is nice to him at the lab. After humiliating himself in front of her, Joel becomes unexpectedly entangled in a series of paranormal episodes. Protesting the use of soldiers as guinea pigs, Joel injects himself with the Nanobot solution and unknowingly becomes THE PSYCHOPOMP. At first, he begins to see strange auras around people. He dismisses it as a side effects of the nanobots, but eventually learns to understand this energy field and control it. This ability makes him extremely valuable to the Department of Defense, and they plan a special operation with him as the key player. The only problem is he has to kill someone he likes.
