Bostyn 'Easy' Reel has always felt like he didn't belong. He is stuck between two worlds and feels like he is drowning in darkness, haunted by his past. After finding out that he was adopted, Bostyn finds himself on a search to discover who he really is. When Meelah Summers meets Bostyn, it is as if the broken pieces of her heart fit together perfectly with the broken pieces of his. The only problem is Meelah's father is a well-known drug distributor, and Bostyn's adoptive father is the head of the Anne Arundel County Police Department - the same police department that killed her mother.
