Earth as we know it will never be the same.
Earth’s sky is penetrated by an alien spacecraft that crashes into a hillside. Miraculously the military is able to save three infants from the wreckage. These three survivors are placed in foster homes until they are twenty.
As an adult, they obtain jobs in the depressed seaside port of Grimsdale. The trio is unaware the military has plans to test their ‘abilities’ with eight other individuals. Unbeknown to the group, the future holds hidden truths and a pathway to horror.
The first sinister test involves an array of terrifying monsters. This attack is one filled with brutality and bloodshed. Will their superpowers be enough to fight off the impending evil and chaos? Or will they perish under the English sky?
