Deen Harsell is between a rock and a hard place- up to his ears in debt to the treacherous Greydusk Clan, the rulers of Core City in all but name, with his life as collateral. A final ultimatum leads him to align with a ragtag mercenary group who bite off more than they can chew and become entrapped in a vicious battle to protect an ancient secret. This secret, a Glitched girl with mysterious abilities, could unravel the entire way of life in Core City and break the rigid system upheld by the criminals and shady mega-corporations at its head, creating in its place the way of life his late grandfather fought and died for.
