Ein gebrochener Körper. Eine geheimnisvolle Welt. Er braucht seinen ganzen Verstand, um zu überleben. Nachdem er knapp dem Tod entronnen ist, stellt Garrett fest, dass er sich in einer neuen Welt befindet. Und was noch schlimmer ist: Ihm fehlt ein Arm und er ist von der Hüfte abwärts gelähmt. Das hält den brutalen Bandenchef, auf dessen Fußboden er liegt, nicht davon ab, ihn auf die Straße zu werfen.

Erschwerend kommt hinzu, dass sein Vater nun weiß, dass er lebt und Garrett für seine eigenen ruchlosen Pläne benutzen will.
