Across the globe, lives are increasingly imperiled by strange happenings borne out of the oceans. As the situation worsens by the day, nobody is able to draw a connection between the seemingly random attacks, until a group of scientists comes together through a shared sense that something bigger is at play: an intelligent life force capable of manipulating the ocean and everything that resides in it, a being which has decided to drive humankind to extinction. When hardly anyone believes the findings, the group is forced to undertake a mission tracking the intelligent life force within the Arctic Ocean -- a mission they know may claim their lives.
