Inhaltsangabe

Scipio Harelson thought he understood the world he lived in. Then his powers emerged. Gifted with abilities that can bend force, motion, and destruction itself, Scipio is thrust into a hidden war older and wider than anything he imagined. Around the world, Enhanced Powered Beings-known as EPBs-are hunted, harvested, and erased by the SOTIR Group, a powerful cabal with deep roots in politics, science, technology, and violence. To the public, SOTIR is untouchable. Behind closed doors, it is building a future where people like Scipio are controlled, weaponized, or destroyed. But SOTIR is not the only force watching him. After the first sign of his powers, Scipio tries to hold on to some version of normal. A party, a beautiful exchange student from Africa named Saphronia, and one unforgettable night seem to offer exactly that-until a deadly confrontation reveals that his abilities are far greater, and far more dangerous, than he understood. When SOTIR comes for him, Scipio is brought into the pan-African Resistance, a hidden network of secret havens, ancient communities, and warriors who have spent generations protecting emergents. What he thought was a sudden awakening becomes part of a struggle that has been unfolding long before he was born. With Saphronia and his best friend Ian beside him, Scipio is pulled from discovery into danger as SOTIR's violence reaches closer to home. And standing in the shadows of that threat is Alex Lamb, a nano-enhanced enforcer whose power and loyalty make him one of Robert Cross's most dangerous weapons. As SOTIR tightens its grip and the Resistance prepares to answer, Scipio must decide how far he is willing to go to protect those he loves-and whether his power will be driven by rage, fear, or something greater. The war for his people has already begun.
