Plot
The story follows Luna, a genetically engineered super-spy created by the US government. Raised in isolation and trained only as a spy, at the age of 15, Luna is assigned to pose as a normal high school girl. Since she never knew real parents or friends, the situation is confusing for her, but she makes friends with Oliver, a skater with a crush on her; and Francesca, a nice girl who used to be friends with Luna's rival. However, she also has to deal with the emotions and events faced by many teenagers, and the fact that the boy she develops a crush on, Jonah, is the son of her main enemy, Count Von Brucken.
