The City's defenses turn back the invaders at the gate, but the situation worsens, with other forms of plant life becoming mobile and hostile. They soon learn that the plants are responding to a field being generated by an orbiting satellite, put in place by a disgraced former Minister of Agriculture, Baron Khael.
