Peacekeeper

Peacekeeper is a sci-fi story taking place in an alternate history similar to the Cold War era of the late 60s/early 70s, particularly the United States. The story focuses on our heroine, Miriam "Miri" Simon, a teaching assistant and graduate student of anthropology. One day, her estranged childhood friend, Aurora Cervantes - a parahuman - arrives out of the blue.

A parahuman is someone with superpowered abilities and are required to be a part of several task forces to keep the peace of the nation.

All Aurora wants from Miri is a simple favor... a favor that Aurora can't do on her own. A favor that requires Miri's assistance specifically. And this favor will lead them on a journey that will question their identities, relationships and their worldviews.

Intended to be a duology.
