The Health Enforcement Team is struggling with the aftermath of IT specialist Bryce's sabotage of government systems. As Bryce threatens to shoot a civil servant every day until his demands are met, the civil service is in melt-down. Tasked with finding out who `turned' Bryce, the team track down the last two groups he was monitoring - a group of student eugenicists who think the Virus should be allowed to take the weak, and a former progressive rock musician, now a survivalist. It's getting dangerous - and not just for the team.
