Book excerpt: For sixteen-year-old Julie Jackson, being able to punch through brick walls and shrug off knives and bullets is no dream. It's a curse that could land her in prison for the rest of her life, or worse. A generation after the Supranormal War decimated the world, Julie lives in hiding with a group of other gifted teenagers, called Supras. Guarded by a telepathic veteran, they try to stay one step ahead of the Normalizers. This ruthless police force, immune to their powers, is tasked with hunting them down to prevent another war. When Julie breaks their cover to rescue another Supra, the Normalizers attack their hideout and capture their guardian. Forced to flee, Julie and her friends have one last hope. The rescued Supra, a frightened young man named Steve, carries a mutated gene that makes him the only one able to use his powers against the Normalizers. However, before they can use his ability to save their mentor, Julie must face her greatest fear, and discover the truth about their origins. If they succeed in their desperate mission, they may become the heroes the world told them they could never be.
