Mondo Migliorato

Questa serie si addentra in un mondo in cui gli individui con abilità potenziate affrontano repulsione e sfiducia diffuse. Vivendo ai margini, cercano l'accettazione e l'integrazione in una società che li teme. Le narrazioni seguono questi esseri emarginati mentre si sforzano di riscattare la loro reputazione e dimostrare il loro valore contro pregiudizi onnipresenti. È un viaggio sull'appartenenza, sul coraggio e sul superamento sia delle lotte interiori che dell'animosità esterna.

    "Talon Valdez knew when he transformed into an enhanced human, his life and his dreams were finished. Reviled, mistrusted, and often locked away, the enhanced are viewed as monsters, despised by the public, and never trusted to serve in the military or any law enforcement agency. Years later he gets a chance to set up a task force of enhanced to serve in the FBI, but with one proviso: each enhanced must partner with a regular human. Finn Mayer dreamed of joining the FBI from the time he was fourteen and made every possible sacrifice to make it happen, including living with his selfish mother and bullying, homophobic brother and never having a boyfriend. But his undiagnosed dyslexia stopped his aspirations dead in their tracks. His last chance is to partner with Talon, an enhanced with deadly abilities who doesn't trust regular humans with their secrets and wants Finn to fail. Four weeks to prove himself to the team. Four weeks for the team to prove itself to the public. And when another group threatens their success--and their lives--four weeks for them to survive."--Back cover

    Gael Peterson has spent years hiding behind the enhanced abilities he wears like a mask, even though he is an important, confident member of the FBI's exclusive H.E.R.O. team. The hurt and betrayal of his mom's abandonment and his father's fists are secrets buried deep beneath the ugly scars on his face, and he doesn't trust Jake, his new regular human partner, with any of them.
