Publisher's Synopsis
When Khai escapes the Research Center and crosses the boundary, sick and alone, he expects to find certain death. As an Imitel, one of those with a frail genome, Khai knows his days are numbered, but within the wilds he finds a new beginning; reborn whole and with the ability to heal not just himself, but others as well.
Returning to the communities he finds a disturbing trend-those he restores are disappearing. Dread and suspicion growing, he revisits his childhood home and his best friend Mae only to find she has absolutely no memory of him. Alarmed, but unrelenting, Khai creates a new identity and ingratiates himself into Mae's workplace with the hopes his presence will awaken old memories.
As Mae and Khai begin to reconnect, ARC unleashes a manhunt for the mysterious figure who appears superhuman. Mae is thrust into the crosshairs of a coup, as agencies leverage power and influence to control the next hope for humanity.
Khai must find those pulling the strings before Mae pays the price for his return.
