When chemist Emma Caldridge travels to an exclusive island to collect rare minerals, she expects to dive the nearby underwater caves, collect her specimens, and fly home. What she doesn't expect is that the mineral she's been hired to collect has unique properties that make it attractive to terrorist organizations around the world and the island is the location of a secret auction to sell it.
Once there, Emma is confronted with an island culture that practices voodoo and tells tales of sea monsters and curses. She dismisses the stories as legend, but when her own ship is nearly sunk and a strange illness sweeps across the island that causes people to behave in erratic and violent manner before they fall into a deep sleep, it becomes clear to Emma that her usual beliefs may be challenged. As the people on the island fall asleep one by one-like Aurora of The Sleeping Beauty legend-the world community imposes a quarantine. No one exposed to the strange illness can leave until the authorities can determine its cause. It's left to Emma to disrupt the sale, steal back the mineral, and try to leave the island alive.
