Refraction
A loner cursed with a psychic power learns he was part of an illicit experiment as a baby, and embarks on a perilous hunt to find those responsible.
File Under: Fantasy
If Aiden Manchester had to have a superpower, why couldn’t it be something useful like predicting the future? Or Jedi mind tricks? Instead, he’s afflicted with manifestations, balls of goo which materialise in midair while he sleeps. But then Aidan learns he was a ‘Quiver Kid’; one of seven orphaned babies drafted for an illicit experiment at Tau Nine-One. Setting out to find the experimenters and his fellow victims, Aiden’s quest turns lethal when he’s kidnapped by a maniacal Quiver Kid with a dark agenda.
As he uncovers dangerous truths about his past, Aiden’s very essence is called into question. Will a hellish confrontation at Tau Nine-One reveal the ultimate purpose of the Quiver Kids?
