Following the traumatic events of the previous fall -- when natural disasters forever changed the landscape of Chicago -- Alessio finds himself getting on with his life, just glad to be alive. He has his family, his beautiful wife DeDe Jakande-Magarelli, and his protective feline, Asaad. His song-writing block lifted, he's enjoying success writing his own music at long last. Sol, his mentor and owner of the ill-fated Twilight Time Lounge has plans for a new club, and Al's life is full of anticipation. The only hitch on that front is the auditioning and hiring a new chanteuse. In spite of his usually kind nature and having not gotten over the loss of his beloved friend Connie Denari, Alessio goes on the defensive. Things heat up when Al begins to pick up on images of violent serial murders occurring in the wounded remains of the city -- vicious bloody attacks leaving the psychic reeling in the wake of their violence. Being who he is, he voluntarily begins to work with police detectives to help capture the killer thus putting himself in the role of 'target'. It's a race to see which will crack first: the case or Alessio Magarelli.
