Her insistence on going public sets her against the bosses of the major pharmaceutical companies. When her dedicated team are killed in a gas explosion, in their laboratory, she realises that her life is in grave danger as well.
Turning to friends for help, the danger from these global corporations escalates to a situation where all their lives are on the line. Once they get Mary safe, her friends start to look into the background of these companies.
Their investigations reveal an even bigger conspiracy. More frightening than anyone ever imagined.
