Publisher's Synopsis
After saving the world, a reluctant young hero finds himself targeted for not having powers, in the third book of this action-packed superhero series.
The Black Death is dead. After hiding in plain sight for more than a decade under the guise of Captain Dawn, the most powerful empathic mimic who ever lived stepped out from the shadows once more to unleash terror and destruction upon the world. But in his moment of apparent triumph, when all hope seemed lost, the Black Death was defeated by Matt Callaghan and Jane Walker, now known to everyone as Matt the Human and Lady Dawn.
Following their victory, Matt and Jane have become the ultimate celebrity couple. But with fame and fans come enemies. The US government wants to use a sample of Matt's powerless DNA to discover a way to strip people of their powers. But there are those who'd rather see Matt dead before that happens. Meanwhile, Jane and the other young superheroes of Morningstar Academy have taken up the mantle of the legendary Legion of Heroes, but the world isn't black and white-and it's not always clear how to help or who needs saving.
Cults and governments, superheroes and killers; all have plans for Matt, who's now stuck at home under permanent, smothering protection. And all are afraid of Jane, out there changing the world with her phenomenal powers. Though power alone may not be enough . . .
In the shadows, unseen forces lurk. And when the reality-hopping Time Child returns with a dire warning, Jane will have to choose between protecting humanity and saving the man she loves.
