The story

In 1958, the town of Centreville, Illinois is quietly invaded by extraterrestrial aliens.

The aliens fire mysterious beams of energy from their hands and eyes, which turn the town's inhabitants into crystalized pulsing blue orbs.

Twenty-five years later, Columbia University lecturer Charles Bigelow learns that his ex-wife, Margaret, has disappeared while attending her mother's funeral in Centerville, and travels there to find her.
