On her first day of junior high, Alexandra Mack was accidentally doused with a mysterious chemical called GC-161 and it changed her life forever. Now Alex is the only high schooler she knows who can zap electricity from her fingertips, morph into an oozing blob of goo, and even make other people morph just by touching them. But having super powers isn't all just fun and games--the company bigwigs that make GC-161 know that some kid was sprayed with the stuff and they'll stop at nothing to find her, so Alex has to keep the powers secret. And Alex's powers aren't easy to hide--especially when they make her glow unexpectedly. But with the help of her best friend Ray and her genius sister Annie, Alex manages to avoid being discovered and to keep away from that truck that keeps following her around.
