Marc Roister – an itinerant poker player in trouble with the local mob – and Travis Tremblay – an ex-photographer with substance abuse issues – are suddenly remembering things, places and people that seem to have been erased from both collective memory and recorded history. Fearing the spread of a virus-like plague, a mysterious group known as "The Handlers" is tasked with hunting and destroying those who recollect. But, does the end justify the means? And is a single random memory worth dying for?
This is a solid book, especially for a first issue with so many secrets. You immediately like several of the characters, the underlying mystery quickly becomes clear, and it asks enough questions without leaving you floating in a big nothing. It's a great effort, and I hope you'll check it out. I can't see why you wouldn't enjoy it. Read Full Review

Im definitely planning on stick around to find out though, thats for sure. Read Full Review
