Leonard Walker once fought on the front lines of "Hexagon"—an elite black-ops unit built to hunt and eliminate rogue cyborgs. Today, he keeps a low profile in City A-077, a neon-choked metropolis teeming with cybernetically enhanced outcasts, working as an underworld fixer. In a lawless concrete jungle caught in the relentless crossfire between ruthless street gangs and trigger-happy security forces, Leonard will take on almost any dirty job—provided the pay is right. Yet, despite a blood-soaked military record, he clings to one stubborn, contradictory principle: he refuses to take a human life.

Because they’ve met each other, their respective worlds have come apart, it's like a collision. And now they are an anchor for each other, the only compass in this new world where they are lost.
