When a rogue object from space is on a collision course with Earth, we naturally shoot a nuclear missile at it. Altered radiation spreads through the atmosphere, causing a lucky/unlucky few of us to develop peculiar, amazing, or downright awful abilities. They are the Adapted. What's next? A new government agency, of course! Popular and progress-minded President Phelps creates the Radiologically Adapted Dangers to Society Administration. RADSA is charged with helping the Adapted become a welcome part of society, but also capture those with abilities deemed too powerful or unsafe.
Four RADSA agents in North Texas, each with their own ability and secrets, go about their jobs interviewing people who can talk to beetles, sneeze ketchup, or destroy plant matter with their touch. The Adapted they encounter with abilities on the Dangers to Society list must be sent to a remote island for the safety of everyone else. No ifs, ands, or due process. One of the agents has an ability on that list.
More rogue objects strike. But when internal strife splits the team, catastrophe looms large across the planet. Can the team put their differences aside in time to stop the biggest and deadliest conspiracy the planet has ever known?
