About The Show
For centuries man has searched the skies for signs of intelligent life… but to
no avail.
What if the explanation lay in the fact that aliens were already here... already
among us? And what if all of the natural disasters we have been experiencing of
late were smokescreens designed to mask something far more ominous?
When yet another devastating hurricane threatens Florida, temporarily cutting
off a small town at the edge of the Everglades, U.S. Park Ranger Russell Varon
takes heroic measures to keep both the town's citizens and his family safe. In
the middle of the violent storm, his young daughter is the only one to see small
lights floating towards the water, seemingly unaffected by the vicious winds. At
the time he thinks nothing of her claim, but begins to suspect that something
may indeed be amiss when his missing ex-wife is found naked, with no memory of
what happened during the storm.
As the tiny town struggles to recover while his nemesis, the Sheriff,
quarantines the entire area, Varon begins to investigate the strange goings on,
unwittingly beginning a fight for the survival of the human race.
Veteran Writer/Producer Shaun Cassidy, and celebrated Director Thomas Schlamme (The
West Wing) bring you the suspenseful tale of a blended family that finds
itself at the center of a conspiracy designed to mask an alien takeover that is
happening one neighbor at a time.
