Highland Resurrection, A Romance Book by B.J. Scott Views: 10
Superheroes
have it rough -- especially when the towns they protect expect them to fix
everything, from forgetting to fill their gas tanks to children running wild to
the consequences of a lack of common sense. Jane is finally fed up with being
the Ghost, notifies the citizens in her town of mental midgets that she’s
quitting, and sets off to make a new life and solve some mysteries of her own.
First
item on the list: return to Neighborlee, the town where she was found as an
abandoned child. Jane knows there are others like her: abandoned children with
unusual powers. Where did they come from, how did they get to Neighborlee and
other towns like it, and why are the Gifted -- as they call themselves -- the
way they are?
As
Jane retraces her childhood, she is pleased to discover that some people
remember her. She settles in, makes a new place for herself, and is welcomed by
the people and the town itself. That’s important, because Neighborlee protects
its own -- and those who don’t fit in are soon driven away. She makes contact
with others like her and slowly earns their trust and confidence.
However,
it’s a bumpy process. Living in the “weirdness capital of the United States,
possibly the world,” means being extra cautious. Even when it comes to someone
with superhero powers. Or maybe especially
someone with superhero powers.
Then
someone -- or something -- from outside her understanding makes contact. It or
he or they promise Jane not only answers to the questions she’s had all her
life, but a way to go home, wherever her real home might be. It’s everything
she’s ever wanted … or is it?
