How do you put your life together after an unimaginable tragedy? How to rediscover and restructure your identity? How to find purpose out of chaos? Dr. Robert Kamer is forced to face those questions after the devastating events involving his brother at the Kamer/Jackson Institute. Finding no answers at the K/J I, he flees to the one person in the world who can help him. In so doing, he leaves his partner, Dr. Samuel Jackson, behind to face not only his own personal agonies but the suspicion and distrust of the staff he is compelled to confront. Along their journeys of soul-searching, both Rob and Sam touch memories of their past, attempt to reconfigure the present and find the faith within themselves to forge ahead, knowing that trial by fire has left scars deeper than the eye can behold.
