Max Effect - Cameron Creese

A gritty yet heartfelt coming-of-age story about power, sacrifice, and what it truly means to be a hero.

Helena has always fought for what's right. But when a violent encounter awakens extraordinary abilities she can barely control, everything changes. Her city is under siege by dangerous forces who will stop at nothing to get what they want-and someone she cares for is caught in the crossfire.

With danger closing in and the rules rewritten, Helena must navigate a world where power comes with a price and every choice matters. Armed with determination and a heart that refuses to give up, she'll discover that true strength isn't about the abilities you possess-it's about how you choose to use them.

In a city where darkness threatens to consume everything, one young woman will prove that courage and kindness can light the way. Some fights are worth everything.
