Rewind: Book 1 - The Third Son
24 parts Ongoing In a not-so-distant future, three-quarters of the world's population have evolved into superior beings called "the dominants", endowed with extraordinary abilities such as telepathy, telekinesis, teleportation, and more. However, these advanced humans are incapable of killing others. Should they attempt to do so, their highly developed nervous systems release a hormone that induces paralyzing pain throughout their bodies. The remaining quarter of the population, possessing no supernatural powers and no such killing barrier, are derogatorily referred to as "the recessives".
One of the few jobs available to "the recessives" is that of executioner, as they can end lives without suffering any repercussions. They are not only scorned for their lack of physical prowess but also feared for their unrestrained capacity for murder.
In the prestigious Lanes family, the father is a powerful politician, the mother a successful businesswoman, the eldest son a reliable doctor, the second son a popular police officer, and the youngest daughter a famous, talented idol. For years, no one knew they had a third son. He is Gabriel Lanes, the only "recessive" in the family. After seven years in prison for committing murder, Gabriel is determined to start anew in an unwelcoming world with a huge disadvantage. Can Gabriel catch a break, or will his dark past catch up with him? - Updates weekly on Fridays.
