Max Evans, his sister Isabel, and Michael Gurin are alien hybrids. Even though their amazing powers seem alien, they are, in fact, human powers. In a few million years, every single person on earth will have the same abilities they have.
However, something may have just gave evolution a jumpstart.
When Max saved Liz Parker's life, he changed her. Now she can do all the things the aliens can, with sometimes disasterous results. If that wasn't bad enough, the remaining board members at MetaChem have found out about her transformation, and want to see if they can repeat it scientifically.
To make matters worse, Max's experience with the late Clayton Weeler has changed him dramatically, putting into question his role in the podsquad, and straining his friendship with Michael to the limits.
Plus, someone is lurking in the shadows, with intentions that could pull the world into chaos. Can the mysterious return of someone thought gone forever turn the tide?
