Synopsis:

Two years have passed since a deadly disease has ravaged the U.K and the government have finally created the first successful antiserum for the virus. Unfortunately, the virus mutates and causes the serum to become redundant on some of the population causing the government to divide the country to protect those already immune from the new strain. Partnering with private security firm Haven Global, the government sets up research facilities and manufacturing centers in the quarantine zone to observe the virus and hopefully create a new vaccine in order to combat the evolving threat.

Fri, 15 Jul 2022 20:58:03 GMT

The population outside the quarantine zone is divided on the issue. Some sit and pray for a solution while others use the situation to push their own anti immunization agenda. This has caused massive political discussion and divide in the government as well as in the general public.

The situation is made more sensitive with the participation of Haven Global, a private security firm that has been bolstering the forces and medical capability of the United kingdom since the disease arrived. Beating their competition for contracts in all major sectors and having signifigant influence in the government, many are now asking just how Haven are doing it all?

With the distribution of the new anti serum about to begin, head of security for Haven's U.K operation David Pierce is summoned to London, to meet the man responsible for Haven's steady rise to power.

Finding herself working all hours in the new manufacturing centres set up in the zone, the only outside contact she has is with a man by the name of John who she befriended not long after her relationship with Anna fell apart, speaking with him every day by phone as a way to keep in touch with the outside world as well as acting as her mentor and therapist during these difficult times.

When the government finally develops a breakthrough and announces that a new serum has finally been created, Cara remains skeptical but tries to look forward to the thought of finally being reunited with Anna again.
