Plot
Esther and Jack are on the run in Scotland. Eventually when Oswald Danes travels to Gwen Cooper's home in Cardiff with information about a man behind the Miracle, the team reconvene in the Cooper residence.
They discover that Jilly Kitzinger has been hired to rewrite the English translations of foreign news clips, including a man in Shanghai who is actually saying he was saved by The Blessing.
Esther notes blood banks were burnt down shortly before the Miracle in two of the most populous cities in the world: Shanghai and Buenos Aires. Rhys, examining a globe, realizes that they are the exact opposite points on the Earth. They decide to split up: Rex and Esther travel to Buenos Aires; Jack, Gwen, and Oswald (who knows too much information to be released and who is at risk of being murdered by Rhys if he stays in the Cooper residence) are smuggled by gun runners into Shanghai.
Meanwhile, Jilly Kitzinger is given an entirely new identity by the Families as "Lucy Statten Meredith" and is promoted to a position in Shanghai. She is taken to The Blessing, which is actually a mysterious crack or fissure running through the centre of the planet Earth.
In Shanghai, Gwen discovers that Jack has not recovered from his gunshot wound and is, in fact, faring worse after traveling. Undressing the bandages, Gwen assesses his wound and a drop of blood drops to the floor of the apartment they are staying in. It begins traveling across the floor and Gwen speculates Jack's blood is drawn to The Blessing.
