Meek, which follows the character Bond, a reporter assigned to cover the ambitious experiments of Jim Carpenter, a controversial scientist attempting to penetrate the Heaviside layer—a mysterious field thought to be impenetrable by conventional means. As Bond reflects on Carpenter's unconventional theories and past mistakes, he becomes an unwitting participant in an experimental journey that confronts dangerous cosmic phenomena and extraordinary creatures.
