Homestead is an American city located in Miami-Dade County in Florida. It is considered a suburb of Miami, and became an incorporated city in February, 1913. Homestead is located in the southeast region of the state, and is bordered by the Florida Everglades to the west, and by Biscayne National Park to the east. Homestead is the main setting for the 2005-2006 science fiction television series Invasion.
Invasion[]
In 2005, Hurricane Eve swept across Southern Florida, wreaking great devastation throughout Homestead. One of the most notable incidents to occur at this time was the downing of a passenger jet in the Everglades, which killed everyone aboard except for Tom Underlay - or so everyone thought. Tom Underlay was the sheriff of Homestead and his miraculous near-death experience coincided with sighting of strange lights seen in the bay. What few people knew was that a race of alien spores had seeded the Florida Everglades, carried in by Hurricane Eve. These spores attached themselves to a deceased individual, replicating their forms, even to the point of duplicating their memories and personality. These genetically replaced individuals continued to work and live as they had always done, and some were even unaware that they were in fact alien host organisms. Underlay knew however, and did his best to safeguard the alien presence from others.
One individual who took a particular interest in the peculiar events going on in Homestead was park ranger and former marine biologist Russell Varon. As a park ranger, he had access to areas where the mysterious underwater lights were being seen. Russell's brother-in-law, Dave Groves, was a conspiracy theorist who correctly deduced that "pod people" were taking over Homestead.
