In a Las Vegas hotel room, a man awakes to confront his destiny
Dreaming, Jack hears voices: a frightened child in a
hospital, a woman cheating on her husband, a death-row
inmate. When he wakes, the voices recede, but they do not
vanish. He is in a luxurious hotel room on the Vegas strip,
and his body is covered in scars. Jack Strong is a patchwork
man, his flesh melded together from dozens of men and women,
and his mind is the same way. Countless lifetimes are
contained within him: people whose time was cut short, and
who see their place in Jack as a chance to make things right.
On behalf of one of them, Jack reignites a feud with corrupt
casino bosses. Drawing on the skills of another, he beats
the life out of two bodyguards. Jack fights for control as
he lurches from impulse to impulse, certain that somewhere
within him exists a soul. The answers may lie with whomever
is tailing him in a sleek black car—if Jack can somehow
confront him.
