action
One night, invisible and completely silent, strange meteor dust trickles down onto the earth. It leaves small black stones that sting when you touch them. After Beau has found and touched a stone, he is stabbed and then feels unwell and has a severe fever and other flu symptoms. But the next day he is healed as if by magic. And more than that: it is bursting with energy. He's not the only person who feels this way. A mysterious, highly intelligent virus has taken possession of Beau's body and is now taking control of him and countless other victims. And the number of victims is increasing.
The few people who are not yet affected, including Beau's friend Cassy, want to try together to find a cure to save humanity.
