Two unassuming men, four extraordinary lives. ~ Ryan's life was a lie. When one of the cases he and Shane are currently investigating goes off into the deep end, Ryan learns that not everything is as it seems. He had once led a totally different life, one he doesn't remember. He had not been the best person then, murdering others and being involved in shady business. But as he uncovers more and more about the forgotten phrase of his life, he unravels secrets that will throw his life on the line. ~ Shane was just like every other average boy: cheerful, lively, ambitious. However, Shane's bright future is snatched from is grasp by the cruel hands of fate. He was badly beaten up by an unknown assailant when he decided to use a deserted alley as a shortcut. Each wave of pain brought a rising flood of screams, none of them heard. Shane had stubbornly clutched onto life, and with his dying breath he had begged for anything, anything at all that might give him a way out of his death sentence. A solution was given to him, and like any innocent child would, he took it. He had survived. He had been reborn. For now he only has one goal, find out who had almost killed him that night, and end his life. With only one clue, a calling card, Shane sets off, ending his search with a conclusion he never wanted.
