Jamie Ptak is a man used to taking the paths others have laid for him. What other choice does he have under the command of thieves who have robbed him of his autonomy? He dreams of freedom but has not the courage to take it. It is only when he is emancipated by the leaders of Crawford- an affluent city in need of someone with his unsavory skillset- that his wish can finally be fulfilled.
Though his journey has only just begun, as with each expedition beyond Crawford's borders, Jamie must fulfill his duties as a copper chaser: harvesting copper from the very creatures which brought humanity to its knees. The ruins beyond Crawford's walls- the alloy zones- are filled with all sorts of monsters and enigmas who seek to make a profit in the lawless lands beyond a reborn society.
But the dangers outside of the walls aren't the only things Jamie has to worry about: he isn't the only one fleeing from his past. He must make choices which can never be undone and take destiny into his own hands. The only question is, will he find the nerve to triumph over a world which seeks to make him its puppet?
