5 years ago, the crew of the Rolvaag went t the bottom of the world to retrieve the largest known meteorite. It ended in disaster: nearly all hands were lost and the meteorite rests on the ocean floor.
Present day: Palmer Lloyd hires Eli Glinn and EES to return to where the Rolvaag was lost. Along with nuclear weapons expert Gideon Crew, the mission is to locate and destroy the meteorite, which actually turned out to be some form of parasitic organism. It has begun to spread across the ocean floor and if left unchecked, could devastate the planet. Exterminating the creature turns out to be a much bigger challenge than they first thought, because it has begun to infect the crew.  Gideon and Eli must find a way to launch the nuclear bomb they brought with them and destroy the creature. The only question is, will it be in time to save humanity?
