Detective Risa Hontiveros is relentless in her pursuit of justice, and no criminal has consumed her focus more than Alice Leal Guo, the city's most elusive and dangerous villain. For months, Risa has chased Alice, always one step behind, unable to bring her to justice. But everything changes one fateful evening when Risa uncovers a shocking truth: Alice is not just the target of her investigation, but the only living witness to a serial murder that has baffled the police for months. Now, forced to protect the woman she once believed was pure evil, Risa must face the uncomfortable reality that Alice is more than the villain she's been painted as. As they work together to uncover the identity of the real killer, Risa begins to see another side of Alice-one that blurs the lines between right and wrong. The tension between them deepens into something far more complicated, forcing Risa to question everything she thought she knew about justice, loyalty, and love. Caught between her duty as a detective and the growing connection she feels for the woman she's supposed to hate, Risa must decide if she's willing to break the very laws she swore to uphold for the chance to protect Alice from the shadows hunting them both.

At 23, Alice wakes up one morning to find herself mysteriously transported into the body of her 33-year-old future self. Suddenly thrown a decade forward, she must navigate the life she unknowingly built, facing the unresolved challenges, relationships, and choices of her future self. With no idea how to return to her own time, Alice must navigate the complexities of her future life while searching for a way back. Along the way, she is forced to reckon with the consequences of a life she doesn't remember living.
