Drew Stafford looks like any traditional 24 year old. He lives with three flatmates in a standard New York apartment and works what sounds like a boring tech job. Except everything isn't so simple. His job is just a cover for what he really does.
He works with his boss to work the cases that Police forget about or don't have the time to work on. It means getting into a lot of fights and making a lot of enemies. But of course, that the easiest part of Drew's life as he is running from something bigger.

No, I don't think I do. 'Do I have anyone who cares about me?' No, I'm a loner and socially awkward. 'Do I have privileges?' No, if you haven't understood the message yet, I live in an abusive household. Now, you might ask if there are any questions the answer is yes. I'll give you some. 'Do I want to die?' Yes, I sometimes do. 'Do I feel alone in this world?' Yes, always. 'Do I get a beating every day?' Yes. *** This is Amara Williams, a 13 year-old with average grades and no friends.
