Collapse

Bol

A researcher dies of a mysterious disease at a California Biotech lab. Around the same time, a small outbreak of an unidentified disease in Melbourne, Australia, turns deadly for a few unlucky people, killing a handful. These were the only warning signs of things to come-unimaginable things. Could the two tragedies be connected? Two young scientists from opposite sides of the globe team up in a race against time to save civilization from collapse. The small outbreak is from an advanced form of bacterium that threatens to end humanity. The pathogen has a 50 percent mortality and can reinfect individuals who recover from its wrath. Can these scientists come up with a cure before it's too late? The answer is surprising and leaves the reader with a warning about civilization. The bug eludes every attempt by humanity to control its spread with seemingly intelligent behavior and an array of capabilities never seen before. Finding a cure is further hampered by global politics and public opinion, but mostly by the rapid dissolution of knowledge and infrastructure. This is a seat-of-your-pants science fiction thriller that is hard to put down.
