In a world where people can cure a common cold by shooting themselves in the head, resurrection is the defining characteristic of what makes one human. Those who fail to resurrect themselves, known as Vectors, are diagnosed with Resurrection Deficiency Syndrome (RDS) and are either incarcerated or eliminated by the police.

The battle is between the police and the escape artists, between immortals and mortals. The winner's outcome is uncertain, yet one certainty is that it will be a gruesome brawl.
