Description
When an alien scout ship crashes down in Russia, a new team of Alpha Force are sent to investigate. Night over Greznyy, Russia. A pair of F-16 Tomcats chases down an unidentified spacecraft moving at supersonic speeds. Within minutes, it is the F-16s that are being chased and eventually they are blasted out of the sky by the spacecraft. Minutes later, residents report a “meteor” flying over the city and landing somewhere in the distant hills.
All bordering countries and military commanders deny shooting down the American jets. But JACK WEBER, head of the Alpha Force, knows this isn’t some random, wild-eyed military assault. At least not by humans.
He calls in SEAN LAMBERT, the sole survivor of the first Alpha mission four years ago in Mexico. Lambert’s entire team was killed while trying to capture a single alien specimen. Now Weber wants Lambert to take a new team of Interceptors into Russia. The mission is the same; locate and capture the alien specimen at all costs.
Lambert and the Alpha Force are flown to Groznyy. The new team is science officer DAWN DESILVIA and Special Ops soldiers HATCH, MCALLISTER and SIKES. They find the wreckage of the alien spacecraft outside a Russian nuclear plant. Holes blasted in the razor fencing and thick concrete walls suggest the alien is inside.
The Alpha rorce enter the nuclear plant and seal oft the exits, creating a trap for the allen. But then, one by one, the Alpha Force are killed off by a creature that possesses a laser weapon, can change its appearance and can also regenerate itself completely from a single piece of alien tissue: Impossible to catch, impossible to kill. Worst of all, the alien has found a way to explode all the uranium fuel rods in the nuclear plant. Creating a lethal radiation cloud over Europe that will quickly spread and cover the rest of the world Lambert and the remaining Alpha Force have sixty minutes to save themselves, and the Earth, from nuclear doom.
