Brooke Voss, a window washer at the bottom of society, is betrayed by his wife Delilah Carter and brutally murdered by her lover Sterling Mercer — only to be reborn three years in the past, at the turning point of his fate.
Given a second chance, Brooke sees through the hypocrisy and snobbery of everyone around him and severs all lingering feelings for Delilah. Faced with the arrogance and contempt of Delilah and her family, he relies on memories of his past life and an extraordinary talent for appraising treasures. At a high-end charity gala, he exposes fake antiques one after another and picks up a priceless porcelain vase at a bargain — striking a humiliating blow to Sterling and the Carter family, while earning the appreciation of business tycoon Harold and the favor of hidden power broker Victoria Astor.
Though Delilah tries everything to block the divorce and win him back for her family's benefit, and her arrogant brother and mother repeatedly provoke him only to be countered, Brooke's heart is iron. Determined to escape this humiliating marriage, he confronts the upper-class elite head-on and begins his path of revenge and rise.
