In 1989, a group of highly skilled scientists in a specially-designed high-security laboratory complex in Louisville, Kentucky, create a genetically engineered species by splicing together cells harvested from cicadas, earthworms, and African mosquitoes. In early spring 1990, the species is released in the name of rodent control, but when it turns on man and beast, things get ugly, and the military is deployed to stop the killer plague. What happens after the military operation sends a new wave of fear over a medium-size town just outside of Omaha, Nebraska, as a new species, far more dangerous than the bloodsuckers, attacks and kills anybody near it. What happens to the main character, Tony Richards, his cousin James Bledsoe, and three other people associated with them is absolutely horrific as they have to confront the danger head-on. In the wake of the second incident, the laboratory complex, in Louisville, Kentucky, is forced to shut down when dark revelations surface in regard to far more sinister and disturbing activities that were taking place within the facility’s walls.
