A horrific crime against humanity takes place in a remote area of the globe. 

Only one piece of evidence remains in existence.

Desperately running from his memories, Eli sought solitude in a quiet university town on the Welsh coastline. Just as he begins to find respite, he stumbles across some puzzling documents. 

Although Eli sets them aside in an effort to try to live the semblance of a normal life, he is drawn back into a deadly international mystery by unknown players who have selected him for a lethal role. Eli's only chance of survival is to uncover the truth behind the elusive atrocity. 

Yet, the closer he gets to answers, the more he, and all those around him, discover that the past always catches up. 

It is just a matter of when.
