    • On Christmas Eve, eighty-five-year-old Miriam Gardiner steps onto the frozen river behind her home, recalling a long-ago love affair. However, her dementia clouds her judgment, and she doesn’t hear the ice crack beneath her until it’s too late. Was her fall an accident, suicide, or something more sinister? As her fractured family gathers in their Bar Harbor mansion for what they believe is her last Christmas, tensions rise. Among the guests is Delphine, Miriam’s insecure granddaughter, who adored her grandmother, and Adam, the live-in nurse with whom Delphine is secretly involved. The family dynamics are complicated: Nicole resents her caretaker role, Diana is burdened by her deadbeat husband, and Richard has made no secret of his wish for their mother to pass. The situation escalates when it’s revealed that Miriam’s will leaves her entire estate to Delphine, cutting out her children. As they plot to contest the will, Delphine begins to notice inconsistencies in their stories, prompting her to investigate further. However, her quest for the truth may lead her into dangerous territory, where she too could end up on thin ice.

      Nia, talentovaná, ale zoufale osamělá hackerka, žije v izolaci se svým přísným svobodným otcem. Nia je nesmírně populární na sociálních sítích, kde má více než milion přátel. Ale jsou to samí cizí lidé; milují její příspěvky, ale o ní samotné ve skutečnosti nic neví. Cameron, vlogger, který se snaží vydobýt si slávu na YouTube, se soustředí na zkoumání záhady jezera Erie. Při natáčení nejnovějšího videa ho během divoké bouře, která zdánlivě odporuje přírodním zákonům, zasáhne blesk. Když se Cameron probudí, objeví v sobě udivující kyberkinetický talent: schopnost manipulovat počítači a elektronikou pomocí mysli. Po náhodném setkání na internetu dva teenageři – jeden s neobyčejným vrozeným talentem, druhý nevědomky proměněný – spojí síly, aby napravili křivdy světa. Zatímco Nia a Cameron rozvíjejí své schopnosti a rozdávají spravedlnost, upoutají pozornost nebezpečných sil a tím ohrozí budoucnost celé planety. Román zasazený do univerza Stana Leeho, na kterém se podíleli Lee, Luke Lieberman a Ryan Silbert a který napsali spolu s autorkou Kat Rosenfield nominovanou na Edgar Award, přináší strhující, krkolomné dobrodružství plné ryzí bujné představivosti, která definovala celou kariéru Stana Leeho jako hlavního stvořitele velkolepého vesmíru Marvel. Jedná se o nové vydání s exkluzivním obsahem včetně bonusových kapitol a doslovu od spolutvůrců série Alliances Lukea Liebermana a Ryana Silberta.
