Power bursts through my body, and I gasp as my hair shoots out like an avenging sword. It slashes a line through the wooden decking of the walkway. With a deafening crack, the wood breaks apart, splintering with the force of the impact.

Having uncovered head teacher Dr Doyinbo's hidden agenda behind the Academy of the Sun, Onyeka and her friends are on the run. But they've got bigger problems to worry about - they desperately need to find a way to restore Niyi's Ike superpower and they need to locate Onyeka's missing parents. When their last safe house is uncovered, Onyeka turns to the only potential allies they have left; the Rogues, a group of rebels that have been trying to expose Dr Doyinbo's lies for years.

Joining forces, will the two groups be able to defeat their shared nemesis, or is there a new danger on the horizon for the Solari?
