Description
Curtis has 48 hours to decide - a bullet to the head, or the death of his family.
Facing a divorce and the loss of custody over his twin daughters, Curtis Morgan travels to Anodyn City to use his talents as a freelance photographer for a one-time snuff contract. But the payoff - enough money to improve his family's life forever - falls out of sight when he wakes up in a hotel room, surrounded by dead bodies, and the police knocking on his door.
Saved by the pragmatic Vanguard, Curtis quickly learns he has become the target of an elusive master of the subconscious, and that his mind is implanted with an irrefutable demand - to recover the money from the snuff job and kill himself within 48 hours. To make matters worse, the Vanguard - seeking to uncover the man pulling the strings - threaten to kill Curtis’s wife and family if he doesn’t follow through.
Faced with an impossible choice, and watched over by the Vanguard’s best, Curtis has two days to accept his fate in a game of cat and mouse - a journey which takes him from the seedy underworld to the skyscraper rooftops of Anodyn City - but there's no telling how far into darkness a man will go to find his way home.
