In 2058, man-made fires cloud a dark landscape that consumes the Earth. Once-thriving cities become a wasteland of outdated mechanical junk, which sparks a rise in crime. Law enforcement evolves so that probable cause is warranted. A private sector trains specialized officers called the Detective Enforcement Office (DEO). When one DEO agent gets involved with a new assignment, he sees odd familiarity to his first breakout case. The agent sees parallels in an evil plot to wipe out the entire city. He must choose between solving crime and a developing love life. The officer must save the city from a perilous villain and hide his troubled past.
