A decade has passed since Jeremiah Drake's parents have gone missing in the metropolitan city of Orcaseye. Despite his efforts over the years, no trace of them has been found, and he's all but given up hope of ever finding them. However, he soon discovers that he isn't the only one who's had loved ones vanish without a trace. His investigation leads him to an unlikely suspect - the city's own government. Keeping those he loves in the dark, Jeremiah refocuses all of his attention to finding out the truth behind the increasing number of vanished people, setting out to expose the corruption that seems to have taken root in the dark underbelly of the city. After years of preparation, with the city's integrity and civil rights rapidly deteriorating before his eyes, Jeremiah is ready to act against a force that ends up being far more sinister than he could have ever imagined.
