Buxxum, North Dakota. The town was named after its lone resource, Buxxum. The lives of the people depend on this resource. Without it, there would be no jobs for the people, no food on their tables, and no hope for survival. But what happens when the resource attacks, when every man, woman, and child becomes part of a diabolical role reversal that leaves no one safe?

Man has dominated the world for a long time. But now a new predator is on the loose that wants a piece of the pie. The adults are dead by daybreak. The children are missing, under the control of deadly beings. A few scattered survivors are left to sort through the corpses for fragments of the lives they once knew.

Danny thought he had the world at his fingertips. He is a provocative painter who seduces the ladies of Buxxum, and leaves them longing while he chases his next conquest. He is forced to do the unthinkable. To help someone else for the first time in his life.

June has loved Danny since they went to high school. She finally has her turn with him and the world falls apart. Can she find him before she is killed? Can they escape the madness?

Martha is a simple schoolteacher who loves her son and longs to move from Buxxum to find a better life. They are seperated at the outbreak of the debacle, and she has to fight against the gathering storm of evil to save her boy. Can she find him before it is too late?

Willy is a dirty, little boy. Frequently he is picked on by his school chums. Will he ever get a bath? Will he put some trousers on that bare ass? Or will he become a beast that rivals the implacable Buxxum running wild in the town.
