Telepathic wolves. Zombie gangsters. Sentient houses. Just another day for Kit Baldwin.
Fifty years after an alien ship crashed in Break Pointe, the only protection in a strange new world is Great Power, a corporation of superhumans. If you can afford them. Most people can’t.
Enter Kit Baldwin, a young woman who helps people to help people. Except her power is the alien’s power, and she may be more of a danger to her city than she is a help.
Kit navigates making her city work again even as she struggles to make her life work. She struggles to connect with her girlfriend Abi, who she can't touch because of her powers. Together, they face their challenges together and make a connection in unexpected ways.
This collection of stories and novellas follows Kit's journey in a series that's been called 'the next logical step after Watchmen.'
