HUMANITY'S FATE LIES IN THE HANDS AND THE MIND OF A CHIMPANZEE Earth has just experienced a contamination from a falling capsule from outer space; the likes of which mankind has never known. On an isolated African reserve, a geneticist in the middle of an intelligence experiment, realises the extent of the epidemic and tries to save his family (and his assistants) including the children's pet chimpanzee. Before the fallout, he had injected the chimpanzee with an intelligence serum. Little does he realise that suddenly everything he knows that will save him and his family - and humanity - must be learned by the chimpanzee. But what will happen when the chimpanzee finds out - the one thing it must never know?
