At the end of the 22nd century, following a nuclear accident, the birth rate is falling. Faced with a rapidly shrinking human race, governments come up with a solution: new people from old. Cloning. But these Reborn people are kept closely monitored, in controlled scenarios. Will they really fit into futuristic society? What other secrets are being hidden outside of the worlds in which they are contained?

While in London, Lovejoy visits old friends Arthur and Colette Goldhorn, but finds Goldhorn's respected antique shop has been taken over by a wealthy German businessman. What's more, Arthur is dead, and Colette, an old flame of Lovejoy's, is living on the streets with her 15-year-old son. Lovejoy vows to avenge his friends, but crossing Herr Gluck turns out to be a dangerous game.
