Publisher's summary

A sinister experiment outside Aleppo.

Two mysterious deaths: one in LA, one in Boston, each with the same horrific symptoms.

In Los Angeles, FBI counterterrorism agent Quinn Traynor receives an urgent call from CDC agent Madeline Hamilton. She’s discovered the first victim of a lethal, unfamiliar virus. Their joint investigation uncovers an imminent bio-terror attack, and their only hope is to identify the terrorists carrying the disease. With just two days remaining before it’s too late, the FBI and the CDC race to prevent a pandemic. The ensuing nightmare will hit closer to home than they ever anticipated, and one of them will pay an unimaginable price for protecting the country.

"Jenifer Ruff does an outstanding job of weaving personal stories in the lives of the characters amidst the action. This book will keep you glued to the pages from beginning to end, wondering what will happen next." (Susan Mills Wilson, author of Hunt for Redemption)

"The story is riveting, the characters are well-drawn, and the plot moves at break-neck speed. Be prepared to be mesmerized. You won't put the book down until you get to the end." (Reita Pendry, author of Discovering Grace)

great read

very entertaining. nice to discover a new author! yes, there are a couple of creative liberties taken with the science, but it "is" fiction, and they weren't glaring. I have more by this author lined up to read!

This Could be Today

This story should show what could happen if the C-19 had been even more deadly than it is. This story could be a wake-up to the Possibility that is real.

Predictable

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE a good mystery involving pathogens, terorist, etc. It was a Nice story, but there is no revelation at the end, no Shocking developments. Halfway through the book, we all know what it is going to happen if you have read enough mysteries, seen some thrillers on TV. I have really missed some big twist at the end. It was really predictable and linear!

Lots of drastically research

The narration. Good change of voices helped drive the story and suspense. The conclusion was gratifying
