Bierce was a happily married cop with a bright future. Then, one sunny day in July, his wife Miriam and their young son Ricky were savagely beaten to death. Bierce was convicted of the murder of his family. Languishing on Death Row twenty-three years later, he still has no memory of the tragedy.
With his execution only seconds away, he is suddenly, inexplicably, released. But the world has moved on without him and the city he knew has become a strange and dangerous place.
Then Bierce meets the beautiful, feisty, half-Chinese Alice Loong - who starts to guide him through the confusing new world of the twenty-first century. But it soon becomes clear that Alice is hiding dark secrets of her own.
After the horrifying discovery of a corpse nailed to a post outside Bierce's house, the pair go on the run, pursued by dangerous enemies. Bierce now knows for certain that he was released to be the prey in a deadly game of cat and mouse...
