Outline
When the crew are called upon to rescue the crew of a crashed helicopter they must risk exposure to toxic radiation when the crash site turns out to be an old British nuclear test site.

Charge digs into the history of the Island and uncovers a military conspiracy over the nuclear testing and a long-lost B-25 bomber with her crew still inside.
