His past being his childhood living as an orphan and bad teenage years at Shadow Rock county before leaving it for good. Now he is back at Shadow Rock where he must face his demons, and much more. Meet Charlotte, whose ideal life is turned upside down when she comes across the alien imposters residing Shadow Rock. She is rescued by Ronan. However, her safety is not secured for long.
