The one thing Payden Carpenter knows for certain is his name. He can kill a Slave-a feat every soldier he's met deems impossible-and yet more Slaves keep coming. To do what-capture him and put him back into another dreamless coma with his memories erased? No one knows if his memories will ever return.
Then he encounters the only Slave who doesn't attack him; who knows his real name and why the enemy wants him. Payden's having trouble finding time to talk to him because of his problem. It happens to be a girl. When the enemy takes her, he learns something else about who he is: a man ready to die to save the one he loves.
