In the Book of Revelations, the Four Horsemen herald the arrival of the Apocalypse. When the First Horseman thunders forth, pestilence will spread throughout the land. For the First Horseman is Plague. The Spanish Flu killed thirty million people worldwide in 1918. Now, with history threatening to repeat itself, a scientific expedition speeds toward a remote island in the Arctic Sea to recover strains of the lethal virus preserved under layers of ice. For Washington Post reporter Frank Daly, it is the story of a lifetime, but his plan to join the expedition is ruined by a ferocious storm. When he meets up with the ship upon its return to port in Norway, it is clear something has gone wrong: fear haunts the faces of the crew, no one will talk, and someone wants Daly to stop asking questions.
