Detective Trish Warner doesn't think her life could possibly get any more hectic with her current case. Then it does. She meets a man on the beach who claims he fell asleep at home reading his favorite book and woke up on the beach. He's convinced that Trish and everything that happens to her after she took this case is in a book and she's his favorite character ever. So, Trish does what any sensible detective would do: she arrests him. The more he talks the more convinced Trish is to prove him wrong. But the question she refuses to ask, the question every good detective must ask: what if he's telling the truth?

In the not-so-distant future evolved humans emerged.

To that end the evolved humans police department was formed to deal with all crime committed by or connected to E.H.s, a force entirely comprised of E.H.s trained to stop and capture any E.H. breaking the law. Adlet Blacksteel is the newest edition to the E.H.P.D., his skills and experience as a hostage extractor makes him an invaluable edition. Joined by his new partner, Jenna Jones, he pursues a secretive manhunt for the Soldiers Of The New World, an underground E.H. crime organization that has a hand in all that is illegal, and their mysterious leader: String, who, seemingly, has eyes and ears everywhere. While Adlet and Jenna intend on doing this by the books, their unsavory past with two of String's captains may muddy their judgement, or, more accurately, it already has. As String's ambitions grow beyond just controlling the city's underbelly Adlet and Jenna are forced to take action with an ally he did not desire. While prejudice against E.H.s reaches it's peak because of a horrific tragedy, the Soldiers of the New World waste no time to expand their reach and rally for their cause of taking over the city.
