The Carrier: The Hunt Begins
Eva Henderson, a diligent and ambitious student with dreams of attending Harvard to study environmental science, leads a seemingly ordinary life in the quiet and rural town of Ashford Pines, Virginia. Her days are filled with schoolwork, spending time with her best friend Steph, and trying to navigate the typical challenges of high school life. However, everything changes one fateful night when Eva's world collides with the supernatural.
On her way home from a visit to Steph's house, Eva encounters a mutated creature that has escaped from the secluded Ticonderoga Corporation's lab. In a moment of terror, the creature bites her, leaving her shaken and confused. Little does she know that this encounter will set off a chain of events that will alter the course of her life forever.
As Eva grapples with the implications of her visions, she also finds herself drawn to Brian, the crush of her life. Despite her growing feelings for him, she is hesitant to reveal the truth about her experiences, fearing that he will think she's crazy. Meanwhile, the pressure of keeping her abilities hidden adds an extra layer of stress to her already complicated teenage life.
Desperate for a return to normalcy, Eva longs to escape the chaos and uncertainty that has engulfed her world. She yearns for the simplicity of her former life, where her biggest worries were homework assignments and crushes on cute boys like Brian. However, as the danger intensifies and the truth behind the murders begins to unravel, Eva realizes that she can never go back to the way things were.
With the help of Steph and her biology teacher Amyra, Eva embarks on a journey to uncover the secrets of the Ticonderoga Corporation and put an end to the terrifying visions that haunt her. Along the way, she must confront her fears, confront her feelings for Brian, and confront the dark forces that threaten to destroy everything she holds dear.
