The U.S. military has created The Grid, a weapon so fiercely advanced that it can stop wars before they start. Professor Trevor Cleveland--forced by the government to help maintain it--fears its possible abuse of power. The Grid is not what it seems, and as experimentation begins, strange things start to happen. A large electormagnetic anomaly appears in space and starts to pull Earth toward the sun. As the devastation starts to take its deathly toll, Trevor's journey into terror begins. During the crisis, he meets a young woman and an Indian man who have a strange connection to the Grid's inventor. Working feverishly together as a team, they form a plan to destroy the Grid and its inventor. But sometimes plans fall apart, and the inventor is a worthy adversary, as he makes plans of his own to detroy his enemies.
