After Manticore’s surprise attack on Citadel spies around the world, Nadia, like Mason, is Backstopped. Once her memories are wiped, she’s compelled to assume the identity of her last working alias, Charlotte Vernon, or Charlie, for short. Directed by the mysterious writing on her arm, Charlie ends up in Valencia, Spain, where for eight years she establishes a new life as the manager of a high-end restaurant. But like Kyle, she is also plagued by the random memory of the man we know as Mason. It’s not until Kyle shows up at her restaurant in Valencia with the X Case in hand that Charlie is afforded the chance to restore her memories as Nadia Sinh.
