Nia è una talentuosa hacker, ma vive in solitudine con un padre enigmatico. La sua unica connessione con il mondo esterno sono i profili social, che non riescono a colmare il vuoto che sente. Cameron, invece, sogna di diventare famoso su YouTube. Durante le riprese vicino al misterioso Lago Erie, un temporale lo colpisce e, al risveglio, scopre di avere un nuovo e sorprendente talento cibercinetico: può controllare computer e dispositivi elettronici con la mente. Nonostante le loro differenze, Nia e Cameron si incontrano online e comprendono che è tempo di abbandonare la solitudine. Decidono di unire le loro straordinarie capacità per combattere un’oscura organizzazione che manovra il mondo dell’informazione. Tuttavia, il male ha molteplici volti e, mentre i loro poteri si sviluppano, imparano che non ci si può fidare nemmeno di chi sembra più vicino. Ambientato nell’universo Alliances, creato con Luke Lieberman e Ryan Silbert e scritto con Kat Rosenfield, il romanzo è un'avventura ricca di adrenalina e invenzioni sorprendenti, che riflettono la creatività di Stan Lee, celebre per il suo contributo all’universo Marvel.

"After nine years spent suffocating in the arid expanse of the Midwest, far from the sea where her mother drowned, Callie Morgan and her father are returning to the coast. But something is calling to her from the river behind their house and from the ocean miles away. Just as Callie's life begins to feel like her own, and as the potential for romance is blossoming, the intoxicating pull of the dark wather seeps into her mind, filling her with doubt and revealing family secrets. Is it madness, or is there a voice, beckoning her to come ot the sea"--Back cover.

On Christmas Eve, eighty-five-year-old Miriam Gardiner steps onto the frozen river behind her home, recalling a long-ago love affair. However, her dementia clouds her judgment, and she doesn’t hear the ice crack beneath her until it’s too late. Was her fall an accident, suicide, or something more sinister? As her fractured family gathers in their Bar Harbor mansion for what they believe is her last Christmas, tensions rise. Among the guests is Delphine, Miriam’s insecure granddaughter, who adored her grandmother, and Adam, the live-in nurse with whom Delphine is secretly involved. The family dynamics are complicated: Nicole resents her caretaker role, Diana is burdened by her deadbeat husband, and Richard has made no secret of his wish for their mother to pass. The situation escalates when it’s revealed that Miriam’s will leaves her entire estate to Delphine, cutting out her children. As they plot to contest the will, Delphine begins to notice inconsistencies in their stories, prompting her to investigate further. However, her quest for the truth may lead her into dangerous territory, where she too could end up on thin ice.

Nia, talentovaná, ale zoufale osamělá hackerka, žije v izolaci se svým přísným svobodným otcem. Nia je nesmírně populární na sociálních sítích, kde má více než milion přátel. Ale jsou to samí cizí lidé; milují její příspěvky, ale o ní samotné ve skutečnosti nic neví. Cameron, vlogger, který se snaží vydobýt si slávu na YouTube, se soustředí na zkoumání záhady jezera Erie. Při natáčení nejnovějšího videa ho během divoké bouře, která zdánlivě odporuje přírodním zákonům, zasáhne blesk. Když se Cameron probudí, objeví v sobě udivující kyberkinetický talent: schopnost manipulovat počítači a elektronikou pomocí mysli. Po náhodném setkání na internetu dva teenageři – jeden s neobyčejným vrozeným talentem, druhý nevědomky proměněný – spojí síly, aby napravili křivdy světa. Zatímco Nia a Cameron rozvíjejí své schopnosti a rozdávají spravedlnost, upoutají pozornost nebezpečných sil a tím ohrozí budoucnost celé planety.
