After a mysterious accident left him paralyzed, sixteen-year-old Joseph finds himself living with his father in Minneapolis and working hot summer days in a bakery. What happened to the life he used to live? How did he come to be here? Although they approach the mystery in different ways, two people in Josephs new lifeseventeen-year-old Zap, who also works in the bakery, and Enzo, a fierce and funny nine-year-old girlboth want to find out. Are you really a superhero? whispers Enzo, who secretly longs for her world to be transformed. Please be a superhero. Stoically quiet, Joseph has never thought of himself as a superhero, especially now that he is in a wheelchair and cant feel his legs. But others disagree. Who is the hero? Who is the enemy? Is redemption possible, and if so, where is it to be found?
