Summary:

Ava Brandt is a young woman finishing graduate school incapable of deciding what direction to take her life. She is plagued by recurring dreams stemming from a hidden memory of being abducted when she was a child. All she remembers is a flash of a man saving her from a laboratory. Ava assumes her dream is just that, a fantasy combined with a last memory of her long dead father, until a chance meeting brings her memory flooding back.

Ben Pearson is the son of historic physician, Philip Physick, who pioneered modern medicine and unlocked the key to aging before being exiled by the medical community and killed by his partner, Dr. Bruder, out of greed. Ben, able to maintain his body in an ageless state with the help of his father’s research, has pursued Dr. Bruder through centuries to end his sociopathic streak of murder and experimentation on young women and children in his twisted hunt for the missing piece of the puzzle only Ben holds.
