What happens when the Long Count ends? That's what a team of scientists situated near Izapa, Mexico, sets out to determine in the years leading up to December 21, 2012 - the end date of the Long Count, the ancient Mayan calendar which some believe predicts the end of the world. When infighting threatens to break up the team before the solution is found, one unscrupulous member advances a theory that puts world armies on alert, brings religious organizations to a tipping point and global society to a panic. As thousands flock to Izapa on the end date to wait for the world to end, the team realizes too late that the danger they thought would come from outside the human race actually comes from within.
