It is nearly two decades since a weaponised virus decimated the Earth, but with the manufacture of the antivirus, it is possible to walk upon the home planet. But what is discovered is far from dead, it is a fearfully dangerous world. The big question is, who transmitted the signal ordering Party members to destroy the cultures of the colony planets? Isaac, Horbury and the Triblian scientists take on the task no-one else is prepared for, to find who still transmits the signal. On Earth they find a more terrifying foe than they have ever encpountered, with eyes still fixed on the colony planets.
