On a futuristic planet in the city of New Ornath, Velma Holt works as a homicide detective with her partner Lance Walker. When the two begin to investigate what seems to be an open and shut case, they discover that the body is the victim of time theft- stealing years of someone's life and giving them to someone else. The case is reassigned to the time department and a suspect is swiftly arrested, but Velma isn't convinced he's the true killer. When she begins work on another case, she realizes that the two murders may be related. Convincing the police department of the two case's relation is another thing entirely, and as she continues the investigation, Velma realizes that the crime conspiracy is big enough to affect the whole city- and it's up to her to put a stop to it.
