The Brain-Stealers

The world has changed. Science and progress are closely restricted by the Security Police, allowing them to control society and its advance. People are secure, but not free. James Hunt defied the laws, conducting experiments without authorisation. Forced to go on the run, he hides himself in a rural community where things seem idyllic. Quiet. Safe. Beneath the surface, however, something more sinister reveals itself.

How long has this been going on without notice in a world where questions are no longer asked? How can humanity fight back?
