In recent years, Jayce and Madelyn have both had what seems like everything turned on their heads. Jayce's stepfather suddenly abandoned his mother, who turned to external sources when she found it difficult to cope. In turn, he had to resort to some, 'unscrupulous' methods in order to make sure the bills get paid. He also made some relationships which will come back to bite at his heels. Madelyn parents are experiencing a rough patch in their marriage. Her dad moved out and her mom is going through a mid-life-crisis, never really home and has been partying and leaving Maddie to take care of her little sister. She's also plagued by the pressure of society. Expected to always do well, at the top of her class. Not to mention Brandon, her possessive ex-boyfriend who seems to be under the illusion that they are still together. What starts as a coincidence after their first day of Sophomore year of high school, turns into a situation that proves difficult for them both to extricate themselves from.

Astren City, and all surrounding area, have the highest crime rate in the northern part of the country. Dozens of crime families constantly trying to take the throne, as well as corruption lurking around every corner, do not aid in that fact at all. Salem Heart's father, Jack Heart, happens to be the Astren City Chief of Police, a title which holds a lot of weight and a rank that claims even more power. He's well respected, and amazing at his job. That said, greatness is expected of Salem as well. Of course that isn't a problem, Salem will always be loyal to the law. He was raised by it, and upholding it is his future career aspiration. He thinks he has his life figured out. The fact that his ex-boyfriend comes from a notorious crime family, and has been arrested several times by Jack's own department, doesn't matter. Salem's passed that, he's over Atlas Marino and he always will be. He will ignore that scratch in his record, and cover it up with his success. Salem is offered a job to help with an investigation that could benefit his future career astronomically. He thinks it's a win-win situation, he gets the recognition he desires, and the streets will be that much safer. It's all black and white to him, easy to understand.
