Tucker has always enjoyed his quiet normal life. He likes sitting on the sidelines of the field as the backup for his high school’s football team and like most of his friends, he has his share of girl troubles as well. But when a secret branch of the U.S. Navy called SYLO suddenly invades his hometown on Pemberwick Island, Maine, Tucker’s life becomes anything but normal!
The SYLO team arrives at Pemberwick Island, announcing that they must quarantine the town because of a deadly virus. Now, no one on Pemberwick Island is allowed to have any contact with the outside world!
Tucker believes there’s more to SYLO’s story, but he’s still not getting the answers to the many weird things he’s seen happen lately. While sitting on the bench, he witnessed a football player on his team randomly drop dead on the field… Then, he and his friend Quinn saw an explosion over the ocean caused by a strange aircraft. Finally, when Tucker has to step up his game and actually play on the field during a football game, a mysterious man offers him a red crystal that gives him incredible power. After trying it, Tucker believes that the football player who died used this crystal as well. Tucker ultimately decides to walk away from the powerful substance. After connecting the dots, Tucker realizes that he must find out what the SYLO team really wants in order to save his hometown and the world!
