"Turning twenty-seven may be terrifying for some, but for Alex, a struggling artist living in the mid-western United States, it is cataclysmic. Inheriting a huge expanse of land should have made him a rich and happy man; but something about this birthday, his name, and the beautiful woman whose life he just saved, has suddenly made him <U+2014> and everyone he loves <U+2014> into a target. A target for extreme and uncompromising violence... Where do you turn when your own reflection spells doom?"--Publisher.
