The Darkest Storm

Tommy is one of the Gifted, people born with special abilities that are locked down by the collars. But being a Gifted was outlawed after massive terrorist attacks destroyed half the world’s population. Now, Tommy’s father is trapped as a participant in a terrible game show, where the only prize is death. Tommy and his friends vow to save his dad, but without their powers, how will they do it? 

After doing the unthinkable and escaping the deadly Gauntlet, Tommy Ward and his friends struggle to come to terms with the price they paid for their survival. But they won’t have time to process their grief, because Tommy is still Gifted, and the world still wants him enslaved. Or dead. Still on the run from The Protectorate and Reclaimers, a visitor appears with a dire warning about their missing friend, dragging them into a conflict that has raged since the beginning of time.

Against all odds, Tommy Ward survived the Darkest Storm and its aftermath, but his biggest challenge announces itself with the blare of a siren. Now, the team is in a race against time to destroy the planet-threatening ray responsible for the deaths of billions of people before the Protectorate can use it to eliminate the Gifted once and for all. To save humanity, Tommy and his team of outcasts must travel the Earth, from Cairo to San Francisco, Boston to Tokyo, and fight the Brotherhood, the Syndicate, and the Reclaimers for control of the weapon that could end life on Earth.
