Synopsis

Electronics don't have an immune system. Something isn't quite right with all the broken cellphones that people have turned in for reparation all over the country. They are stone-dead. At the same time, a row of unexplainable events starts to trigger each other in society. A manufacturing flaw in the car's microchips quickly turns the roads into car-cemeteries. The trains are affected by electrical defects, the shelves in stores are empty, the summer colds are getting worse, and the power outages become a part of everyday life. On Karlsborgs Airport, the elite soldier Gustaf Silverbane stands ready for foreign aid when something terrible goes sideways, and a firelight fills the sky. The survivalist Filip Stenvik gets to see his earlier ridiculed hobby turn into something deadly serious. In the increasing uncertainty, the police officer Peter Ragnhell drives his already unconventional methods for crime-fighting to its tip. At the same time, the programmer Anna Ljungberg makes a discovery that threatens to change the basis for all human life on earth. Or is it already too late? After another power outage, everything changes. The dark fall walks into a starlit winter, where chaos rules and few survive.
