The Once-Dead Girl

Cheerleader Bethany Rossiter dies the day before she becomes 16. She comes back to life with superhuman powers. She remembers that in her brother's comic books superheroes come to be feared and hated no matter what good deeds they do. She tries to lead a normal life.

But little by little fate conspires against this course. Bad things happen that only she can make right. Baby step by baby step, then bigger steps, she grows into her responsibilities.

To help her do her superhero "job" she creates first one, then another alternate identity. Former soldier now mercenary Yao Ming, unequaled with weapons, able to get unseen into places impossible to enter. Beautiful jet-setter millionaire Sandrine Ascarides. And a star girl with blue skin and purple hair who can fly and wield laser bolts and lightning.

She is sometimes desperately lonely, unable to share her secret. Then she finds she is not alone....
