The Vigilante
In a city where justice has lost its way… one vigilante must decide how far is too far.
Sixteen-year-old Jet Thompson is no longer hiding. After revealing his identity to Vinton, he’s determined to become the hero the city desperately needs. But with corruption running rampant and the Brigand and Shinogi gangs tightening their grip, saving Vinton will take more than superpowers.
When both gangs set their sights on the powerful armor worn by Sting, Jet and his friends devise a dangerous plan to bring them down. But the deeper Jet is pulled into Vinton’s criminal underworld, the harder it becomes to balance being a superhero with being a teenager. Between training former classmate Alan Denet to control his newfound powers, protecting the people he cares about, and navigating an unexpected crush, Jet is quickly discovering that saving the city might cost him the life he’s only just begun to reclaim.
Meanwhile, Sting is fighting a battle of her own. When sixteen-year-old Jazleen Sidhu finally discovers the truth about her sister’s death, her search for justice threatens to become something far more dangerous.
Three teenagers. Three destinies. One city on the brink.
