The Phoenix Elite

Adam Eberhardt has always felt different, but he never would’ve guessed he was a clone of Albert Einstein. Science geeks don't usually live inside the body of a hulk. A brain that never shuts off can be a blessing or a curse, but Adam hasn’t felt many blessings during his sleepless nights, regular victims of his severe anxiety disorder. Weaving through harrowing childhood memories, science research, and self-doubt, he most enjoys spending his mind power thinking about his wunderkind fellow student, Margot. . .who remains oblivious to his interest.

The serial abduction of nuclear scientists, including Margot, triggers a cascade of action that reveals things are not what they have seemed. Military officials dispatch to all corners of the globe to pick up individuals with an unusual gray marking on their wrist. Adam joins a group of seven young adults in a top-secret training facility where they learn a shocking fact: each one is an enhanced clone of a famous historical figure.

They were created by the Phoenix Elite Initiative under the watch of scientist Emmanuel Kebe. Kebe has been popping in and out of their lives since their earliest memories, spending decades developing their natural abilities and training them from a distance, all in preparation for a time of global crisis. And that time of crisis has arrived.
