Who is Max Ryker? He knows his own identity, but he can't convince anyone else. And with only 62 hours left, he fears he might soon forget himself.

A man, who believes he is a government operative for a covert black-ops division of the CIA, awakens in the aftermath of the bombing of a federal building in Chicago. Disoriented and struggling to reconcile his last memory—an operation in Croatia pursuing a target wanted for espionage—he soon finds himself accused of domestic terrorism and mass murder. Either his mind is unraveling, or he's been expertly framed.

Adding to his confusion, he discovers a wedding band he doesn't recognize adorns his finger, an ominous watch on his wrist counts down from 62 hours, and the cryptic words 'Black Raven' are scrawled across his hand. As his memories fade with each passing hour and his pleas of innocence fall on deaf ears, he is forced to flee in a desperate bid to clear his name.

Targeted by a nationwide manhunt involving multiple agencies, he begins to unravel the secrets of his shadowy past. With the unexpected help of a few resourceful allies, he embarks on a perilous journey to uncover the true motives of those who betrayed him and thwart a deadly conspiracy that extends to the highest echelons of power.
