This is a story about the soul destroying itself in its host. 
Moira Amari-Warden is from a clan of remarkable human beings assigned to fix any reality they are assigned to. Upon their awakening, they are honored with the name One-Like-Me (OLM). After righteously killing her suicidal OLM counterpart in another reality, Moira struggles with her own desire to be alive and faces violent suicidal ideation that manifests as what this reality would term a mental illness. 
In the year 2025, the story follows Moira Amari-Warden through her internal journey of self-hatred and her attempts to suffocate it by anchoring herself to her role in the reality. Doctor, philanthropist, mother. The story also follows her two children and husband, who struggle with being rich and black. Her husband, Eli battles his anger, self-awareness and alcoholism. Mhina, her desperate savior complex and Micah, his desire to hide from all of it.
This story finally offers a coming of age for all characters as they battle to accept who they are. In the process, they manifest special gifts, skills and abilities due to their high functioning mental illnesses.  At the dawn of a new technological age, this family's tale offers a harrowing look into the future of mental illness through an afro-futurist and magical realist lens.
