It has been 10 years since Heaven's Gate appeared in South America and Hell's Gate appeared in Japan, veiling the once familiar night sky with an oppressive skyscape. Their purposes unknown, these Gates are spaces in which the very laws of physics are ignored. With the appearance of the Gates emerged Contractors, who, in exchange for their humanity, are granted supernatural abilities. In the Japanese city surrounding Hell's Gate, Section 4 Chief Misaki Kirihara finds herself at odds with an infamous Contractor codenamed Hei. Called "Black Reaper" in the underground world, Hei, like his associates, undertakes missions for the mysterious and ruthless Syndicate while slowly peeling back the dark layers covering a nefarious plot that threatens the very existence of Contractors. From the mind of Tensai Okamura comes a sci-fi thriller taking the form of a subtle exposé on a war in which political positions and justice have no sway-a war waged exclusively in the shadows.

Some call the Contractors the next step of human evolution, but their kind has changed even since they first appeared. The remorseless calculation of those sent as surrogate assassins has always been their signature, but at some point, the writing on the wall began to change. Compassion among killers. Cooperation among thieves. BK201 has been chosen by fate to usher in a new era within this new age. Something big is on the horizon for those who dwell in the shadows, but as the spotted sun rises over Hell's Gate, the clock ticks toward imminent destruction. Should the Black Reaper survive, reality will be his to mold.
