Hans Ricker knows the value of his life. 500 dollars. He came cheap, and death came easy. But in the near future it’s not that easy to die, and now he’s back, and the trouble is only growing deeper.

Something else wants him alive, something even more powerful, more mysterious, and Hans isn’t the only one with the power of resurrection.
