Dr. Harper Randolph listens to dead men tell their tales.
From the imaginative mind of international bestselling author, Bobby Akart, comes a series ripped from today's headlines. Meet the Virus Hunters, the disease detectives on the front line of a never-ending battle to save humanity from viruses one-billionth our size.
Only Akart can weave a story that begins so calm, so normal and before you know it, you are at the end of the book with your pulse pounding in your chest and your mind screaming for more!
When visitors to Las Vegas begin dying from an unknown virus, Harper Randolph, Doctor of Medicine and Epidemiologist with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is asked to lead the investigation to track down patient zero while keeping what's happening in Vegas, in Vegas.
The world is grappling with an issue of enormous scale and human impact. In the arms race with deadly pathogens, there can be no final peace. The only question is whether we fight well or poorly. Defeat means massive disruptions to our daily lives, huge losses economically, and death.
Under MY version of Wikipedia, under 'Insomnia - Causation', is a picture of Bobby Akart. I have learned not to pick up one of his books near bedtime as I will be unable to set it aside for hours!
The Virus Hunters travel the globe as disease detectives, chasing deadly acts against humanity committed by microbes one-billionth the size of their victims.
Bobby Akart has delivered up-all-night thrillers in his forty-plus novels. His new Virus Hunters novels will give you pause and remind you that we're in a global war for survival against an unseen foe.
This trilogy introduces the Virus Hunters team, however future Virus Hunters thrillers will be standalone novels.
Mixing science and suspense is something Bobby Akart is a master of--writing character driven stories that will have you on the edge of your seat.
SPECIAL DEDICATION:
This series is dedicated to the Virus Hunters - the disease detectives, shoe-leather epidemiologists of the CDC's Epidemic Intelligence Service who work tirelessly to keep these deadly infectious diseases from killing us all. Thank you!
