As the former, legitimate President of the United States schemes (along with some of the Storied Watcher’s superhuman followers) to get his job back, his former second-in-command – now also calling himself “President” – does his worst to kill Sam Jacobson, Minnie Chu, the real President and the Storied Watcher. The faux-President might not even have to try very hard for the first three, as Karéin-Mayréij – accompanied by her angry, grieving family – has appeared at the White House with blood in her eye. But the alien’s own plans for revenge have to take a back-seat : the Storied Watcher, the President and the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area have multiple nuclear weapons hurtling at them, from every direction. The lives of millions of helpless people lie in the balance, as the Storied Watcher and her super-powered “New People” try to work a miracle!
