Colorado, 1875. When the MacEilans left Ireland, they hoped for a new start, away from the pain that has followed them their whole lives. But when four of the children are left alone in the frontiers of Colorado, a new start seems impossible- especially for Anne MacEilan, who still lives in her family's dark past. America isn't at all how they thought it would be. There's thieves and disease all around them- just what they hoped wouldn't be there. Life has never treated the MacEilan family well... but will they be able to beat the odds, and make a life for themselves on the harsh Colorado soil?

"What the hell?" I took a step closer to the mirror, staring at my reflection in disbelief. The person looking back was still me, but at the same time it wasn't. I had the same thick, dark, curly hair. The same hazel eyes. The same olive skin with a light dusting of freckles (ugh) scattered across the bridge of my nose. But my curls were now streaked with highlights. And not the subtle, golden-brown ones that sometimes appeared during the summer. No, these were an aggressive, dazzling blond that went from the roots of my hair all the way to the tips. It looked like I had spent a full day getting my hair done in some upscale salon. Never mind that I had never set foot in such a place since the day I was born. My eyes appeared somehow wider and more luminous. The colour brighter, my eyelashes darker up against them. And, when I looked closely, my pupils seemed to be slitted almost like a cat. I looked down at my body. My skinny arms-which had always refused to gain any definition no matter how hard I exercised-were lined with flat, wiry muscles. My bony shoulders were now curved and smooth. My scrawny legs were toned like a dancer. I reached down and lifted my shirt, revealing two subtle lines running vertically down my perfectly flat stomach, hinting at the rock-hard abs underneath. My whole body was rippling with strength. Like liquid steel.

As the only non-super at the school he's practically useless. When he was offered a chance to gain his own super powers he rashly jumps at the chance. No powers were worth everything Markus is immediately thrown into: a struggle between right and wrong. Between good and evil. Between hero and villain.
