"It's the most lethal deadline in history and if it's not met, three and a half million people will die!"

Overview

A journalist sets out to report on a minor earthquake in the Australian outback, and finds that the tremor was a result of a small nuclear explosion - part of an extortion threat that has the government fearing nuclear blackmail.
