As luck would have it, his first case is handed to him by his neighbour. He has to find seductive femme fatale Cherry, who has mysteriously vanished.As he descends into the seedier side of the city, from pubs and clubs to offices, John discovers that to find Cherry, a motive, and himself, he must draw on the darkest recesses of his past and question what it is to have an identity in the first place.
