Emergence Protocol

THE BLIND SPOT TRILOGY · BOOK ONE

Marcus is a Bronx test-cell engineer. Naomi is a hospice CNA in Queens. Daniel is a night-shift welder. Selene documents impossible things from Lagos. Tobias sees himself in every mirror in New York. None of them know each other yet. All of them are about to find out what they can do — and what it costs. A superhero novel that treats powers the way a physicist treats gravity: measurable, expensive, and indifferent to the story you were telling about your life.

For readers of Worm, Hench, Vicious, and Recursion.
