Amanda Kincaid
 Codename: Corkscrew
 Abilities: nuclear fission and fusion, absorbs energy and fires beams of radiated heat
 Mission: recovery of lost memories and sanity

 Kidnapped and experimented on by R.E.X. labs, Amanda's memories are foggy. She can't recognize friend from foe and she strikes out with everything she has. Only one man penetrates the storms surging in her mind, a soothing stranger with hypnotic eyes...

 Simon Masters
 Codename: Soothsayer
 Abilities: telepath
 Mission: save Corkscrew or terminate her

 Cautious, methodical Simon has always been careful to keep his innermost self contained. Simon must confront his fears-and his deepest secrets-to help the powerful woman rein in her abilities in.

With new enemies closing in and dark revelations unfolding, the Boomers face their greatest challenge yet and the deeper into Corkscrew's psyche Simon pushes, the more her madness threatens them all...

 Winning never felt so much like losing. The team has recovered Corkscrew, but she is lost to insanity. Simon, the most cautious of them all, must risk everything to bring her back from the brink, but losing this gambit could cost them Simon as well.
