Tom Valentine wakes up in an unfamiliar loft apartment - not sure where he is or how he got there.

Valentine is only certain of three things: The girl that he loved has been murdered. His mind has been warped by the effects of a powerful psychotropic drug and he only has one chance to bring the shrouded, corporate killers to justice...
