"I got held at gunpoint down there." Finn tells us, in a dried out voice. "I'm not sure if you noticed. The whole time I was just thinking about what would happen if I died. Who would remember me? And I thought about how expendable I was, y'know? How in old paintings they show a war hero surrounded by dead bodies, and how I always thought that I was that hero, but really, I could be one of those bodies. I could just be another digit added to the casualties." "Even if you end up like that, you died for something, right?" I lean back further against the wall, the places where the railing for the stairs dug into my back stinging. "Dying for something is better than living for nothing."

Felix Jaynes is a special agent for the Real Life Immersion Program (also known as RLIP). A few months ago, she had a traumatic experience that caused her to go from a confident agent who was a phenomenal expert in her field, to suddenly doubting her career. She has recently been sent to an extremely rural town called Toselville. Her mission: find the middle aged son of two weapons designers who created blueprints for the United States government. As time goes on, she befriends Ashton Mathis, the owner of the only grocery shop in town, and his best friend/employee. RLIP agents have partners who talk to them through their small earpieces that cannot be seen. These agents are not allowed to see their partners or even know their names. Felix has had many partners who are generally cold and over-professional. But Felix has been assigned to Wolf, an older gentleman who becomes a sort of wise father figure to her. After going with Ashton and his friends to the town bowling alley, Felix finds that she is starting to get into a clique of her own. Ashton is there to hopefully win Felix's heart, and Felix is there strictly on business, hoping to get information for her case...or so she keeps telling herself. Against Wolf's initial words of wisdom, Felix finds herself thinking about Ashton and accepts his invitation to go out on a date. But Felix accidentally blows her cover, and soon, Ashton is attacked. Felix was able to save him once, but now her enemies will stop at nothing to get to them. Felix is reassigned to a new mission...witness protection for Ashton and herself. Their budding romantic relationship comes to a sharp halt as they now have to focus on working together to survive. They can run, but they know their enemies are never far behind. Their only option to save themselves is to solve this case. And it is not going to be easy.
