In a bleak near-future, where a select few have been born with the ability to see events before they happen, Kaoru Jacobs has a simple job. He is an assassin. He kills, waits for his next assignment and then he kills again. On December 2, 2049, Kaoru receives his next Renata Cambridge, head of the Artemis militia group. A woman who has been dead for over twenty years. The assignment means the resurrection of a secret time travel project and a journey back to 2014. Failure will result in his being stranded in a time where he does not belong and a paradox that might just kill him.
