author: Long, Hugh B.
description: Cheska has the power to save them all, but only if she can save herself first.
   She may be the most powerful Abhuman every born, with the power to bend space & time. Most fear her. A few seek to control her. Her powers pale compared to the evil theocracy that has enslaved her people. Genetically engineered to emerge within the enslaved human population, Cheska is haunted by the terrible responsibility thrust upon her. Now that her powers have fully manifested, new memories emerge, and surging emotions threaten to tear her apart. She never asked for this. Never wanted this. The resistance say that
  she
   is their salvation, that only
  she
   has the power to fulfill the prophecy and deliver them all from slavery. But she’s already lost almost everything, and they want to take even more? When the resistance receive a distress call from Cheska’s mother, still up on their cityship in orbit, Cheska demands to be on the rescue team. If she has the power to save her people, then she’s determined to start with her mother. Betrayed, she makes a harrowing journey through a planetary superstorm, only to find her people already doomed.
  She has one shot to save them all, but at what price?
