Arriving in her office after an unsuccessful night on stakeout, D.I. Rebecca Flint is called into her boss's office and is assigned a very unusual case. Dr. Christian King, a internationally renowned astrophysicist, has requested an intelligent, imaginative detective to investigate a very strange event. D.I. Flint goes to Dr. King's office and is confronted with a bizarre set of images apparently showing an explosion that hasn't happened yet! D.I. Flint accuses Dr. King of perpetrating a hoax and is about to leave when he gives her the telephone number from one of the images and tells her to call it. She does and it is real and is connected to the name Lauren, also from the image. D.I. Flint returns to Dr. Kings office with her team, D.S. Ben Holt and D.C. Callum Gada, and they begin to investigate the information provided by the images but with only six hours before the deadline the investigation becomes a deadly race against time to decipher the clues and avert a disaster.
