***
A geeky highschooler develops superpowers and is recruited to an international peackeeping unit at the same time as struggling with mental health problems.
***
Gonzalo Lopez, nicknamed 'Weakling' by his bullies, is just a normal teenager except that he has superpowers.
Ever since that fight with Bill Jackson where his powers first manifested and he broke his attackerโs hand by accident, everything has been spiralling out of control.
Now all of a sudden heโs getting invited to parties, his psychiatristโs started dating his Mom, and at least two different international organisations are trying to hunt him down.
Then thereโs Ali--the new girl at school, the only other person who believes any of this is happening to him, who seems to be hiding a secret of her own. Is she really his friend like she says she is, or does she have some sort of ulterior motive for being so nice to him all the time? Should he tell her about Miracle Force, the superpowered United Nations peacekeeping unit heโs just been recruited to?
And how is he going to keep his head together when all of this is happening so fast?
