THE SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER 'Superb ... It is
tremendous fun, tremendously told' Tom Whipple, The Times 'A fluid
intellectual thriller' Daily Telegraph From the global bestselling
author of The Big Short, the gripping story of the maverick
scientists who hunted down Covid-19 'It's a foreboding,' she said.
'A knowing that something is looming around the corner. Like how
when the seasons change you can smell Fall in the air right before
the leaves change and the wind turns cold.' In January 2020, as
people started dying from a new virus in Wuhan, China, few really
understood the magnitude of what was happening. Except, that is, a
small group of scientific misfits who in their different ways had
been obsessed all their lives with how viruses spread and
replicated - and with why the governments and the institutions that
were supposed to look after us, kept making the same mistakes time
and again. This group saw what nobody else did. A pandemic was
coming. We weren't prepared. The Premonition is the extraordinary
story of a group who anticipated, traced and hunted the
coronavirus; who understood the need to think differently, to learn
from history, to question everything; and to do all of this fast,
in order to act, to save lives, communities, society itself. It's a
story about the workings of the human mind; about the failures and
triumphs of human judgement and imagination. It's the story of how
we got to now. 'Lewis is a master of his form' Sunday Times
