Miranda Hollander is a college professor who shares a home with her uncle, Tom Hollander, a museum worker, and she possesses a extraordinary ability: she can read books by touch without ever opening them. Raised with the belief that her parents died in an accident when she was a baby, she experiences a frightening turn after her birthday when she blackouts and is rushed to a local hospital. There, the calm of the hospital gives way to horror as Miranda transforms into an alien form and kills several people. When Tom arrives the next morning, he finds a scene of widespread death and quickly takes action to uncover the truth behind his niece’s condition.
