Overview

High schooler Charlie West just woke up in a nightmare.

He’s strapped to a chair. He’s covered in blood and bruises. He hurts all over. And a strange voice outside the door just ordered his death.

Charlie West is a good kid. The last thing he can remember, he was a normal high-school student doing normal things–working on his homework, practicing karate, daydreaming of becoming an air force pilot, writing a pretty girl’s number on his hand. How long ago was that? And more to the point . . . How is he going to get out of this room alive?

By calling on his deepest reserves of strength and focus, Charlie manages a desperate escape . . . only to find out that this nightmare isn’t ending. There’s a whole year of his life that he can’t remember–a year in which he was convicted of murdering his best friend and working with terrorists.

Now, with the police hunting him and a band of killers on his trail, he’s got to find the answers to some of the deepest questions there are: Who am I? What do I stand for? And how am I going to stay alive?
