## Synopsis

After four months in a coma, CSI investigator Elena Cruz awakens to find her life has changed once again - the accident granting her the ability of super speed. Though initially excited by her newfound powers, Elena is shocked to discover she is not the only "superhuman" who was created in the wake of the accident - and not everyone is using their new powers for good. In the months since the accident, the city has seen a sharp increase in missing people, unexplained deaths and other strange phenomena. Elena now has a renewed purpose - using her gift of speed to protect the innocent, while never giving up on her quest to solve her mother's murder and clear her father's name. For now, only a few close friends and associates know that Elena is literally the fastest woman alive, but it won't be long before the world learns what Elena Cruz has become, Hypersonic.
