This is the story of Tyneside’s newest – and messiest – superhero. After a terrible quirk of fate leaves him with extraordinary powers, Will thinks he could be set to become a quintessential comic-book hero. But it quickly becomes clear that his new powers are stuck in flux, changing constantly at the drop of a hat. No rhyme, no reason, no pattern. Just chaos.

All told in his own words, experience his origin, his resulting super-charged identity crisis, his single-minded quest to take down a pyromaniacal gang, and his search for a way to thrive under the omnipresent, lonely shadow of the city’s totalitarian rule. And as he meets both vital new friends and dangerous new enemies, there’s also that strange, persistent voice whispering in his ear: protect the city. And to do that, he’ll have to embrace the chaos and assume the identity Hyperfocus.
