Deze saga duikt in een wereld waarin één procent van de bevolking buitengewone vermogens bezit, die zich sinds 1980 manifesteren. De verhalen volgen individuen die worstelen met deze gaven, van het ontrafelen van de donkerste geheimen van anderen tot het manipuleren van financiële markten. Sommigen gebruiken deze krachten om terrorisme te bestrijden, terwijl anderen een bedreiging vormen voor de samenleving. De serie onderzoekt de ethische dilemma's die gepaard gaan met bovenmenselijke capaciteiten en de tijdloze strijd tussen goed en kwaad.

"The brilliants changed everything. Since 1980, 1% of the world has been born with gifts we'd only dreamed of. The ability to sense a person's most intimate secrets, or predict the stock market, or move virtually unseen. For thirty years the world has struggled with a growing divide between the exceptional... and the rest of us. Now a terrorist network led by brilliants has crippled three cities. Supermarket shelves stand empty. 911 calls go unanswered. Fanatics are burning people alive. Nick Cooper has always fought to make the world better for his children. As both a brilliant and an advisor to the president of the United States, he's against everything the terrorists represent. But as America slides toward a devastating civil war, Cooper is forced to play a game he dares not lose--because his opponents have their own vision of a better world. And to reach it, they're willing to burn this one down"--Amazon.com.
