Imagine you are lost in a cave. It's dark and cold. You lost the flashlight. You have to get out of here, no matter how, and feel your way along the floor when suddenly your hand finds something warm. You recoil in shock - just to feel again what it could be. '
Cruel murders are happening in a small town. They are reminiscent of Indian myths and a historical massacre. Many believe that the spirits of the dead have returned to take vengeance. Special Agent Pendergast is following more earthly tracks: the gene experiments on corn, with the help of which the city is supposed to flourish again, seem to have gotten out of hand. Or is there something completely different behind it?
(Zamislite da ste izgubljeni u špilji. Mračno je i hladno. Izgubio si svjetiljku. Moraš izaći odavde, bez obzira na koji način, i pipati po podu kad odjednom tvoja ruka nađe nešto toplo. Ustuknete u šoku - samo da ponovno osjetite što bi to moglo biti. '
U malom gradu događaju se okrutna ubojstva. Podsjećaju na indijanske mitove i povijesni masakr. Mnogi vjeruju da su se duhovi mrtvih vratili kako bi se osvetili. Specijalni agent Pendergast ide zemaljskim tragovima: genski eksperimenti na kukuruzu, uz pomoć kojih bi grad trebao ponovno procvjetati, čini se da su izmakli kontroli. Ili se iza toga krije nešto sasvim drugo?)
