"In a near-future world where death is a bureaucratic inconvenience — for those who can afford it — a former elite harvester wakes in a stolen body with no memory of who betrayed them."

The World

The Continuity Authority manages resurrection rights across the Inner Rings. Consciousness is backed up to the Continuity Cloud. Bodies are grown in licensed facilities, harvested in unlicensed ones, and the line between the two is enforced inconsistently and profitably. Death, for the wealthy, is an inconvenience with a processing fee. For everyone else, it is still permanent.

A former elite body harvester wakes in Neo-Osaka in a stolen vessel with a scrambled Thread implant and no memory of the betrayal that put them there. Survival is the first problem. Finding out why is the one that matters. The series follows the investigation across four books — into the Continuity Authority, the illegal harvesting networks, and the people who decided one harvester needed to disappear.

Neo-Osaka has no patience for the confused.
