Daniel was born of something out of this world. When his mother spotted something dangerous, she did her best to hide it. As he grows, Daniel learns he isn't like other kids. He can control the substance on his body, but it also has a mind of its own. But power never comes without a price.
In a city drowning in crime and ruled by shadowy figures, Daniel's abilities thrust him into the heart of a war he never asked to fight. Raised in the harsh drug infested environment of California and tested by loss, and love, Daniel walks a razor's edge between hero and weapon.
Daniel Steel is an explosive coming-of-age origin story that blends the pulse-pounding action of superhero drama with the raw emotion of personal tragedy. As Daniel battles to find his mother's killer, ruthless crime lords, and the darkness within himself, he must choose what kind of man-and what kind of hero-he will become.
This is the story of how a boy becomes a myth.
