Phage Part 1: A Post Apocalyptic Survival Thriller

The deluge that drowned civilization was only the beginning. Now, as survivors cling to scattered islands in the transformed world, a mysterious plague spreads through contaminated water and clothing, claiming victims with ruthless efficiency. For those who thought they'd escaped the worst of humanity's reckoning, the real nightmare is just starting.

Marine biologist Dr. Ellen Fischer has delivered actor Joel Baxter's daughter Jodi to safety on a remote Arkansas island, but her own desperate search for her missing eight-year-old daughter Maria is far from over. Teaming up with washed-up action star Patrick Reid, she must navigate the treacherous waters of a fractured America where new governments rise from the ashes and old secrets threaten to surface.

Meanwhile, Maria's father Bobby Rodriguez races against time through the chaos of refugee camps and lawless highways, following a cold trail that leads toward the Nevada desert. His relentless pursuit becomes even more dangerous when he discovers that powerful forces are hunting for anyone connected to the truth behind the global catastrophe.

Scientist Edwin "Buzz" Baxter harbors devastating knowledge about the disaster that reshaped the world. As a brilliant but troubled teenager named Max closes in on the truth, and federal agents hunt for answers, Buzz realizes that some discoveries are too dangerous to reveal—and too terrible to keep hidden.

From the flooded ruins of Los Angeles to the storm-lashed islands of the new American archipelago, "Phage" delivers a gripping tale of survival, sacrifice, and the deadly consequences of playing god with nature. In this shattered world, the greatest threat isn't the rising waters—it's what humanity has become in the aftermath.
