The third one is the control unit. But now all three have escaped from Hobson's computer into the worldwide electronic matrix. And one of them is a killer.

At the CERN laboratory in Switzerland the Large Hadron Collider is being constructed with several teams of scientists and engineers working on the assembly of the various detectors, which will be recording data once the Collider is up and running to test previously elusive theories of physics. When Prof. Lydia Jenner, a terminally ill ex-colleague of billionaire inventor Dave Purdue, contacts him to assist her in a clandestine experiment to prove a rather absurd theory based on the work of genius engineer and scientist Nikola Tesla, he is intrigued. But upon his arrival he finds that the nearly incapacitated woman wants to use him as a test subject.

Während einer Forschungsreise durch den tropischen Regenwald Amazoniens entwickeln die beiden Wissenschaftler Manfred Säuerling und Georg Rosenrunge eine Vision. Ihre ebenso kühne wie bahnbrechende Idee sieht vor, mit biologischen Energieressourcen, bei denen Tiere als Kraftwerke dienen, im großen Stil Alternativen zur konventionellen Stromerzeugung zu schaffen. Doch die Erfindung bringt dem Forscherteam nicht nur Ruhm ein. Ein übermächtiger Gegner, der sein Monopol auf die Stromerzeugung nicht so schnell aus der Hand geben will, meldet sich zu Wort.
