From the acclaimed author of "Infected" comes an epic and
exhilarating story of humanity's secret battle against a horrific
enemy.
Across America, a mysterious pathogen transforms ordinary people
into raging killers, psychopaths driven by a terrifying, alien
agenda. The human race fights back, yet after every battle the
disease responds, adapts, using sophisticated strategies and
brilliant ruses to fool its pursuers. The only possible
explanation: the epidemic is driven not by evolution but by some
malevolent intelligence.
Standing against this unimaginable threat is a small group,
assembled under the strictest secrecy. Their best weapon is hulking
former football star Perry Dawsey, left psychologically shattered
by his own struggles with this terrible enemy, who possesses an
unexplainable ability to locate the disease's hosts. Violent and
unpredictable, Perry is both the nation's best hope and a
terrifying liability. Hardened CIA veteran Dew Phillips must
somehow forge a connection with him if they're going to stand a
chance against this maddeningly adaptable opponent. Alongside them
is Margaret Montoya, a brilliant epidemiologist who fights for a
cure even as she reels under the weight of endless horrors.
These three and their team have kept humanity in the game, but
that's not good enough anymore, not when the disease turns
contagious, triggering a fast countdown to Armageddon. Meanwhile,
other enemies join the battle, and a new threat -- one that comes
from a most unexpected source -- may ultimately prove the most
dangerous of all.
Catapulting the reader into a world where humanity's life span is
measured in hours and the president's finger hovers over the
nuclear button, rising star Scott Sigler takes us on a
breathtaking, hyper-adrenalized ride filled with terror and
jaw-dropping action. "Contagious" is a truly grand work of
suspense, science, and horror from a new master.
