Chad Chambers is 10 and an only child. His only relatives are on his mom's side, and she has three sisters and a brother (Uncle Charlie). The story starts on Easter brunch, and it's a bitch fest with seven female cousins. Everyone thinks Uncle Charlie is homeless, but Chad knows better. After lunch, Chad followed his uncle to an upscale home and watched him enter a building in the rear. Chad saw his uncle inject himself with something, then the door rang. When his uncle leaves the building, Chad enters and hears an argument in the house. He sees the formula and injects himself, then steals the formula and notes and hides. The men and Uncle Charlie enter the building, and the men threaten Uncle Charlie's life for the formula. Chad escapes as the building explodes, and his quest to continue Uncle Charlie's work starts.
