Things have gone horribly wrong for Al and the world as we know it. The Alpha Project arises as a possible solution, but quickly becomes a dangerous prospect and a one way trip to hell for Al and everyone involved. Caught in the crossfires of an ethical and moral nightmare, Al tries to maintain the few strands of sanity he has left. With no one to turn to and so much on the line, he makes friends with another man who's also on the edge. When changes that neither of them fully understands, shreds the connection that they've built, one of them will find themselves in a heart-stopping dance with a monster.
