Simon Lewis, who was a mundane in City of Bones, then a vampire from the middle of City of Ashes until almost the end of City of Heavenly Fire has been stripped of his memories by a greater demon in the final volume of The Mortal Instruments. In order to retrieve his memories, he decides to become a Shadowhunter, but he must first train at the Shadowhunter Academy.
