Synopsis
Vasic is an assassin and soldier of the Arrow squad, a man who lives in the shadows and is haunted by his violent past. His people face a deadly contagion that drives empaths toward madness, and he has a dangerous mission to complete if they are to survive. Ivy Jane is an empath who has recovered from a harmful medical treatment aimed at her mind and abilities. She chooses to stand with Vasic and fight for her people, even though he believes he is beyond redemption. As the crisis grows worse and the threat to the empaths spreads, the bond between them is tested and both must decide what they are willing to risk.
