   Un Boeing 777 atterra all'aeroporto di New York e rimane immobile sulla pista. Si sospetta un attentato terroristico, ma quando le forze speciali salgono a bordo si trovano invece di fronte a una scena agghiacciante: sembra che tutti gli occupanti dell'aereo siano morti senza una ragione comprensibile. Eph Goodweather, dell'Ente prevenzione malattie infettive, e la sua collega Nora Martinez esaminano i cadaveri; qualunque ne sia stata la causa, la morte deve averli colti di sorpresa. La notizia dell'accaduto arriva fino ad Abraham Setrakian, un anziano ex professore, l'unico in grado di capire la situazione. L'uomo riconosce in quel fatto inspiegabile l'evento a lungo atteso a cui si è preparato per tutta la vita. Si tratta di un morbo dagli effetti letali, la cui diffusione nelle strade di Manhattan dà inizio a uno scontro in cui gli umani diventano il cibo di misteriosi esseri soprannaturali. Con l'aiuto di Setrakian, Eph dovrà cercare di fermare il contagio e salvare la città prima che sia troppo tardi...
