Twelve months ago, Max was living what one would consider a normal life. That is, until he learned he was a little more than your average 30-year-old.

Angela doesn't know who she is, what school she went to, or where she lives. She doesn't even know what she is. They told her she's dead and her thoughts execute on a machine. But she doesn't feel like a machine and definitely doesn't look like one. More like some stuck-up kid with zero percent body fat.

Angela would have a better chance of figuring out who she really is if people would stop lying to her and stop shooting at her.
