Lane Anslow, a freelance cop, fights a deepening sense of despair as he roams the gang-infested streets of Portland twenty years hence. That is, until he finds himself at the center of a vast web of political and economic intrigue involving his brother Johnny, a brilliant but bipolar biotech scientist. It seems Johnny has perfected a rejuvenation therapy that can actually reverse the aging process. And those who financed it have no intention of sharing. In fact, they're willing to do nearly anything to retain it as an exclusive tool of power at the highest levels of business and government. But Lane doesn't see it that way and winds up in a federal prison fashioned from an aircraft graveyard in Arizona. He's liberated by Rachel Heinz, a savvy political operative, who joins his quest to unveil a conspiracy of almost staggering proportions. And what they find will have a devastating impact on the lives of both Lane and his emotionally stricken brother.
