My WIP is about...
*deep breath*
It's about a secret program organized by a government scientist for the purpose of child fighting. These children have been given superpowers by the scientist, Dr. Katherine Collins.
We, as the readers, are given insight into the lives of Steve Sandber, his wife Jessie, and their nieces Syd and Des Lipsky, who live with them. Steve, as punishment for his wife having a miscarriage, murders his brother-in-law and his wife. He also ends up separating Syd and Des, who are one-year-old at the time, selling Des to a drug dealer.
Jessie, sixteen years after Des' 'death' (as she has been told by Steve), leaves the man, going to a domestic violence shelter with her son and the remaining niece, Syd. They are, shortly after their arrival, betrayed by the shelter's overseer.
Eventually, the twins (who have, thanks to experimentation, no idea that they are related) are reunited in Dr. Collins' program, The Hai-Zi Project. Jessie is also part of the program as an instructor due to her military experience. Dr. Collins plans to murder her, as she is the last surviving relative of the twins.
The novel goes from the twins' home life to their capture and draft into the program to their liberation and flight to the United Kingdom. It is currently in its' last draft.
