In 1985, Yale Tishman, the development director for an art gallery in Chicago, is about to pull off an amazing coup, bringing in an extraordinary collection of 1920s paintings as a gift to the gallery.

One by one, his friends are dying and after his friend Nicos funeral, the virus circles closer and closer to Yale himself. Soon the only person he has left is Fiona, Nicos little sister.
