Welcome to the 1960s, London.
Now is a time of colour, a time of twist in the tide. Especially, for young Kyon Collins.
While most kids his age are learning algebra, he's sitting in the back of his class staring out the window - because of how easy it all is.
'He sounds like a pre-teenage prodigy', you're probably thinking. But you couldn't be more wrong.
Kyon doesn't study, he just knows.
His brain is developing, much different from his other classmates. His 'normal', classmates.
Kyon is one of the few in this world with the personality disorder, 'agenlintosis' (age-n-lin-tow-sis). Funny name, huh? Sounds like mitosis, but lets not get into that.
Agenlintosis, is a personality disorder that occurs in small children, and preteens. This personality disorder rips all forms of a normal childhood from them, and replaces it with premature adulthood.
You know those edgy kids who smoke weed, and cigarettes in the bathroom? Yeah, not what we're talking about.
We're talking a small child, getting upset that they have the intelligence to get a steady job. Like an accountant. But because of their age, they won't get hired. There are only six confirmed patients in the world.
Exiled from societal norms due to the insane progressional patterns in his brain, Kyon Collins story begins...
An original story by; 'Dani J. Martel'.

***
Newly widowed housewife Melody Scott needs to earn some major cash, fast. When her bright and busy children learn that a priceless ruby bracelet has been stolen and a six-figure reward is being offered, they convince her to try to do what the police, museum security, and the best private investigators have failed to do. Working against them is a notorious thief who has met people from around the world, but who has never once encountered a woman like Melody Scott. When the sweet innocence of the Scott family clashes against criminal forces more dangerous than they ever imagined, Melody is all too aware that a mom's got to do what a mom's got to do to protect her family.
