Meet Jessica Jones: a private investigator and retired superhero based out of Hell’s Kitchen Manhattan who goes from job to job as a hard living rough talking loner. And then a wealthy Upper East Side woman pays her a visit. Amber Randall is concerned about her twin sixteen-year-olds Lark and Fox who have acted and looked very different since they returned from spending the summer with their British father in the UK. She tells Jessica that her children have unnaturally perfect skin for teenagers and have lost all the tics and habits that made them who they were. They are not Lark and Fox she tells Jessica. Something has happened to them. To find out more Jessica travels to Essex to talk to their father and once there meets Belle who is living a curiously isolated existence in a run-down farmhouse with her guardian Debra. Jessica knows that Lark and Fox had spent the summer with Belle—but can this unworldly teenager really be responsible for Lark and Fox’s new personas?

Can Jessica stop them from wreaking destruction on a whole generation of young people?
