In a strange re-mixed future Manchester a cloud of pollen descends - a new strain,each tiny grain a murderer. Within days the streets of the city are overgrown with vicious blooms as the fiercest hay fever epidemic of all time takes hold.People are sneezing themselves to death and the pollen count is racing towards 2000.A small percentage of the population are immune to the fever.Two of them - shadow-cop Sibyl Jones and her wayward daughter Boda - are on separate paths into the dark place from where the pollen originates.What they find there will change their lives forever. The fate of Manchester depends upon them.
