Product Information

In a village outside Edinburgh, a young boy is the victim of a shocking ordeal while playing by the canal . . . he is attacked by a rat. The village itself is currently in turmoil over a genetically modified crop growing in a nearby field and sinister doubts are being expressed over its supposed government licence. The Sci-Med Inspectorate send Steven Dunbar to investigate. His search for the truth soon gives rise to the horrific suspicion that the rat incident - one of several in the area - might be connected to the GM crop.
