Harry McQuinn has always been an outcast at his school. One day began no differently than usual, except that a classmate named Catherine stood up for him when local bullies were harassing him. She encourages Harry to open up and is amazed when he reveals his unique ability of telekinesis—the power to move objects with his mind. Catherine is astonished by this ability. Unfortunately, Harry does not realize his powers have a dangerous side effect: every time he uses them, someone close to him dies.
