When Connor is invited to a friend’s birthday party, he brings along the latest pre-release model of a highly anticipated NextGen action figure, set to come out at Christmas.Two days later, all of the children from the party are in a coma with their parents in a panic. Is it some kind of outbreak?With Connor’s health deteriorating fast, and his doctors at a loss to explain what is wrong with him, John alone plunges into a desperate search for answers. His journey takes him to China and what he uncovers may be the deadliest terrorist attack in history – unless he can stop it.
