The year is 2052—an era of unprecedented peace and prosperity prevails across the globe. The reason for this: humanity has been freed from disease and pain. Nobel Prize-winning neuroscientist Dr. Skinner has developed a miracle drug that cures everything, with no apparent downsides, called Hapuna. Hapuna soon becomes ubiquitous… and essential. However, shortly after Hapuna is officially introduced, Dr. Skinner disappears.
Three years later, the world has moved on. But Dr. Skinner has returned—this time as a harbinger of doom. Skinner announces that Hapuna has a short half-life. All who have taken it will die approximately three years later. Death is coming to this sinful world—and coming soon.
In response to this threat, a special task force of 5 agents is assembled from around the world to save humanity from Skinner's plan. This group is called "Lazarus". Can they find Skinner and develop a vaccine before time runs out?
