E-Catalyst

When fifteen-year-old Jeremy Marshall goes on a family vacation to watch a rare astronomical event, he and his sister get a lot more than they bargained for. As particles from a nearby comet rain down into Earth's atmosphere, an electrical discharge vaporizes millions of people worldwide including his parents. As survivors grieve for their loved ones they lost in this horrible event, a biological contagion begins to mutate plants, insects, animals and even people.
Jeremy's sister has a theory that all of those people who disappeared weren't killed; instead, she believes they've been transported to an alternate reality. When Jeremy, his sister and two of his friends develop extrasensory abilities, they are recruited by the FBI who believe their new power may be the key to saving the world.
