This story jumps right in with the action and will either leave you confused or jumping on board for the ride.  To be clear, I was not confused and enjoyed it from start to finish.This is a futuristic story with advanced computer and cyborg-like technology.  It focuses on Bear who is a EMT sent out on a call for an unconscious John Doe.  The John Doe turns out to be a man of mysteries who Bear patches up and then the man disappears into the night still injured, but mobile.  This happens two more times and Bear can't help, but notice that these needs for medical attention correspond with break-ins at an important tech lab.  The mysterious man is Cyke.  He has been outfitted with some of the best technology Bear has ever seen.  Cyke's tech is good, but it needs work.  He refuses Bear's help so he can hide his secrets, but eventually he caves to the needs of his body and learns to trust Bear to care for him.The plot unwraps the mystery of Cyke slowly along with the slow to build relationship between the two guys.  Bear is a healer and Cyke is a warrior so it is interesting to see how that works out.  There are a few really exciting scenes  mixed with quieter moments.  I only wish that some of Cyke's background could have come out more like why Cyke even has all that techno Cyborg like stuff on his body and the hints that someone did it to make him into some sort of super-soldier.The characters are pretty much just Cyke and Bear with  minor bits by Bear's medic team and the bad guy. But this was not a bad thing because Cyke and Bear were such well-written characters.Very enjoyable little futuristic adventure with a dab of romance.
