Years after the horrible accident destroyed his life Steve survives at the edge of society. He scrapes a living selling drugs and opioids to Pittsburgh's rich and poor alike and otherwise lives as a shadow; alone, silent, empty and cold. Then he meets Deb, a woman broken by the cruelest loss. Only he could come anywhere close to understanding her pain, and only she can know his. Their bond of anguish purifies to love as he dares forgive himself and move on. As a bright future dawns Steve finds the Steel City's underbelly isn't done with him. A mysterious figure from his past stalks and tries to kill him, he is tasked by white collar elites to find a missing child, and the local Mafia boss blackmails him into becoming an assassin...all the while preparing for a second chance at fatherhood.
