Ten-year-old Aurora Beam discovers that she's the latest in a long line of girl super heroes in her family and is able to shoot beams of light from her fingers, but she's finding this saving-the-world lark isn't all it's cracked up to be. World-famous overnight, Aurora is living in the full glare of the media's flash bulbs. When she attends a global gathering of superheroes, will she find support from new friends who know exactly what she's going through? Or will there be rivalries and sabotage to deal with? And what on earth is Grandma Beam, who Aurora thought was running a home for retired alpacas deep in the countryside, doing turning up at this top-secret summit?
