Surviving each day the best way he knows how, mastermind computer hacker/safe cracker Elroy Coffin is serving time in a Texas prison for attempted murder and armed robbery two years after a gunshot to his head scrambled his memory. But each day, a bit more of his past life becomes clearer. It almost drives him crazy when he realizes his wife, as well as his father, are both dead. Now if he can just live long enough to figure out his past and avenge their deaths.
Elroy is given that opportunity when the powerfully wealthy Jayne Jenison comes to the prison with a deal to free him if he will agree to do a highly technical job for her. She provides further incentive by telling him his adored wife, Toni, is still alive. Jenison also tells Elroy that her daughter is with Toni, so she wants him to rescue both of them. There's no way Elroy can turn down Jenison.
If Elroy thought the violence was horrible in prison, it's nothing compared to what he faces on the outside. He soon finds out his father is alive and working the same job, but what about Toni. Is she alive, or was it just a lie to get him to agree to the job? Every step Elroy takes, every corner he turns, every person he meets provides additional layers of subterfuge to his tortured existence. He doesn't know who to trust with each person being more ruthless than the one before. And it's just going to get worse when he learns the people he's dealing with are willing to go to any lengths to change the world and advance a new resurrection.
