Dr. Skinner's Hapuna, a supposedly miracle cure-all drug, has been widely adopted since its introduction in 2052 due to the Nobel Prize winning neuroscientist's groundbreaking research. However, Dr. Skinner has gone missing, and three years later, he reappears to announce that Hapuna's benefits are short-lived, with users facing an eventual deadly outcome. In response, a global task force known as "Lazarus" is formed, comprising five agents tasked with locating Dr. Skinner and developing a vaccine to save humanity from the impending threat.
