Plot

Three years prior to the start of the series, a team of astronaut miners complete a space expedition. By the time they return to Earth, their commander had gone insane, taking a terrible secret with him to a heavily guarded state lunatic asylum. At the beginning of the series, archaeologist Lloyd Walker and entomologist Marianne Winters are among a select group of people who are questioning a possible link between the space mission, the commander’s madness, and a series of bizarre accidents and disappearances.

Liz Quinlan, employee of the mayor’s office, is secretly the aliens’ ruler and knows their secret. Police and government officials are overwhelmed by aliens masquerading as humans. Lloyd and Marianne realize they can trust no one, except William Phillips, the only person who knows the ultimate goal of the aliens and who holds the key to their defeat. Phillips is the commander and sole survivor of the mission. Lloyd and Marianne seek to find him before he becomes a victim of an unearthly experiment.
