When a 10-year-old girl dies from food poisoning, Anya Crichton travels to Tasmania to investigate the potential source of the contamination. While there, she also checks up on her elderly mother, a former physician, and finds her in a delusional and paranoid state - she's hoarding old patient records and has written CONSPIRACY all over them.

As Anya delves deeper into the source of the deadly E. Coli outbreak, she comes up against powerful forces who will stop at nothing, even murder, to ensure the truth behind what is really in our food remains hidden.
