"[A] shadowy, underground, anti-America paramilitary group called the Trust has pooled its resources and contracted a brilliant geneticist to force the next step in human evolution. The doctor, unaware of the group's true purposes, chooses seven children from a bank of DNA profiles and has them brought to 'the Home, ' the name the kids give to the laboratory where they are raised. Through their adolescences, they are subjected to gene splicing, chemical enhancements, mechanical and biological implants, and rigorous testing. When Posey, who was treated with avian DNA, begins a massive physical change, the other six teenagers realize that their time with the Home is coming to an end and decide to steal Posey and run. Led by John, a genetically enhanced 'super-soldier, ' the seven make their break from the Home, but Sarah (who can run faster than the speed of sound) is captured and taken to a hidden military installation. The others have to rescue her and shut down the base so the Trust can't continue with its plans to take down the U.S. Government in a military coup using the incredible powers of the genetically altered teenagers. As each of the seven comes to terms with his or her powers, they make a final, epic stand against base commander General Tucker and the Trust"--Author's web site.
