CASH
The story of a former American GI with incredible hypersenses
In the jungle of Vietnam: The beginning of the story tells us that James Cash, an intelligence officer in the US Army, had been sent out on a flight assignment over Vietnam, right into the operations field. |

Set up by the CIA, the mission takes a turn for the worse. His aircraft crashes practically in the middle of the Vietcong troops, and he is trapped for eight solid months in the jungle, rubbing shoulders with death, enduring great physical and mental pain. But an instinct from the depths of time wells up within him and takes over as an absolute necessity. For Cash, the metamorphosis from human to animal constitutes a permanent state of being. While he occasionally curses this mutation that controls his being, he knows that he owes his survival to it. |

Six
and a half years after the crash: We find James Cash back in the States where he quickly becomes involved in the fight against Organized Crime. As his strange fate would have it, he winds up hunting the all-powerful murderers in the |
| jungles of modern cities, in
cooperation with the "untouchables" of the
FBI's W.H. unit. One of his partners is a young federal
agent (Billy Cobb) assigned strictly as an observer but who actively takes part
in the action.

At the
beginning of the CASH series (Hurricane over White House),
James barely escapes a bomb blast targeting him. The
person responsible for the bomb attack is a mentally
deranged former CIA executive. Having survived the blast,
James first experiences problems with his eyesight and
hearing. The disturbances come and go, and are impossible
to predict. These phenomena of hyperacute eyesight and
hearing (which he chalks up to as being mere
hallucinations) are incomprehensible for the hospital
doctors treating and running tests on him. A specialist
whom he meets at the hospital later explains to him what
these oddities are. As time goes by, James Cash learns to
control his hypersenses unknown to the average Joe. They allow him to
pick up sounds that are completely inaudible for any
other human, and to see at stupefying distances. He finds
himself endowed with other hypersensory faculties: night
perception, danger alarm, and many others. Sometimes they
start out with migraines and he may
also lose awareness of his surroundings. Throughout his
assignments, James Cash fights for justice, using his
hypersenses, which allow him maximum efficacy in
combating Organized Crime.
