After the United States government eliminates a secret, long-term experimental program, the head of the project-a brilliant scientist who specializes in genetics...releases his creations into the wild... ...then commits suicide. It takes many months before the public becomes aware of the menace Professor Karl Mindenhall has unleashed on an unsuspecting world. The creatures are officially known as petrol bees, but the public quickly dubs them "hell hornets"-huge, aggressive insects... ...with an unquenchable thirst for petroleum products. As their colonies grow and multiply, there are increasing incidents of savage attacks on citizens, as well as massive hive explosions that kill thousands, leveling multiple city blocks in spectacular blasts. As the threat spreads across the nation, and then into other countries, Homeland Security Agent Jim Jones is given the unenviable task of tackling the petrol bee problem. Assisted by Bonnie Parker, a lovely young female agent, and his uber-efficient one-armed secretary, Trinity Fairweather, Jones leads a nationwide search-and-destroy effort. As a longtime civil servant, Jones is only slightly surprised to find that some of his greatest challenges during this mammoth pest-control problem come from dealing with the US government... ...including some of the very people he's supposed to answer to. Eventually, the eradication effort falls to an unusual private corporation made up of scientists and other individuals, hand-picked and bankrolled by none other than the late Professor Mindenhall. Led by the brilliant scientist's former assistant, and aided by Raven Tanglewood, a redneck Idaho mountain man and his raccoon Tripod, Gordian Genetics Galactic Enterprises sets out to eradicate the petrol bees... ...before the insects can eradicate the human race.
