However, his peaceful isolation is brought to an abrupt halt when he is forced to join a clandestine team working on a government funded experiment. Not only is he forced to overcome his own ethical and emotional boundaries dealing with the study, but he becomes caught up in a game of cat and mouse with a very select few government agency officials who want to possess the products of the experiments. Carson finds himself in more than one secured government location, working to protect his new-found colleagues and the experiment on which they work.

Carson and his team must evade the government's attempts at taking the products of the experiment, and they must do this without getting in the way of the Overman.
