For years, Fahima Deeb has managed to maintain a fragile peace between Resonants — those with supernatural gifts — and baseliners. But the Black Rose Faction, a militaristic organisation of Resonants who are controlled by an increasingly unhinged Patrick Davenport, is undermining Fahima’s diplomacy, pushing instead for a violent takeover of the United States.
With nowhere to turn and few she can trust, Fahima must rely on uncertain allies: Carrie Norris, whose illusion of a normal life vanishes at Fahima’s reappearance; Emmeline Hirsch, adrift ever since Fahima untethered her from her ability to travel through time; and Clay Weaver, a retired soldier fighting to keep his husband and son out of the clutches of the Black Rose Faction.
And if this group of unlikely heroes can’t stand together, the world will surely fall apart.
'The Somebody People is a thought-provoking read that raises timely points and bears a resemblance to the X-Men series in its treatment of those with extraordinary abilities. Fans of the series will definitely enjoy this installment.' — Booklist
