Michael has power. He doesn't want it. Any of it. And he doesn't think anyone else should have it either. After the entire town of Mills Hook, West Virginia had been wiped away, the coverup has been exposed on the internet, though there is much speculation about the authenticity of the information. There are enough people who believe it happened and it was caused by people with superhuman abilities. An impassioned senator named Alistair Varney starts a federally funded task force to find such people. Michael and Claire Roseman, as well as their associates, know the truth about Mills Hook. They were there and barely escaped with their lives. They explore the ethics of using their abilities while trying to help others who are being hunted by Varney and his task force. As they try to live their lives in anonymity, they must contend with the secret organization that created them, a hungry journalist looking to expose them, and figures from their past that threaten to ruin their future.
