A meteorite has struck Earth without warning, unleashing a deadly alien virus. Thousands fall victim...but not Sarah and Robert. Instead they develop strange side effects – psychic abilities. And that makes them a target for HIDRA, a rogue international agency determined to turn them into lab rats, just like the other kids they've already captured – kids who can control fire, create storms and tear steel with their minds. If they can work together, these kids might just stand a chance...
"Looks certain to stir up a 'dust storm' in the world of children's fiction. A heart-racing, hair-raising and vibrantly visual hybrid of Heroes, X-Men and Lost, this story really has got the lot..." - Lancashire Evening Post
