After a huge explosion in a nightclub on New Year's Eve, the government quarantines a large area of the city, citing a bioweapon contamination.

She encounters a web of lies concerning paranormal phenomena emanating from the quarantine zone, which the government is trying to keep secret.
Episode 1 After an explosion tears apart an English city, photo-journalist Jennifer Preston notices people acting strangely, and ghostly images in her pictures.
Episode 2 Jennifer has trouble convincing her boyfriend Jonas of the ghostly phenomena until he learns that his colleagues at the Home Office have lied to him.
Episode 3 When Jonas vanishes and police officer Levi Mathis becomes the prime suspect in a murder, Jennifer discovers that the conspiracy is greater than she ever imagined.
