Publisher's summary

The Black Death killed almost half of Europe's population. This time it will be billions.

New Orleans has been quarantined, an unknown virus sweeping the city, killing 100 percent of those infected. The Center for Disease Control, desperate to find a cure, is approached by BioDyne Pharma who reveal a former employee has turned a cutting-edge medical treatment capable of targeting specific genetic sequences into a weapon, and released it.

CIA Special Agent Dylan Kane has been given one guideline from his boss: Consider yourself unleashed, leaving Kane and New Orleans Police Detective Isabelle Laprise battling to stay alive as an insidious disease and terrified mobs spread through the city while they desperately seek those behind the greatest crime ever perpetrated.

The stakes have never been higher as Kane battles to save not only his friends and the country he loves, but all of mankind.

Ideal for ages 10 to 14

I believe the right age group will love this. For me a bit too cheesy.

Great series!

First book in this series was included with audible so I tried it, and I am hooked. I purchased the second one and will purchase everyone after and others by this author. Keeps you on the edge of your seat wondering how things will turn out in a realistic manner, that doesn’t require you to suspend belief in things. Very well done.

WAY too long of a prologue

The author spends an inordinate amount of time setting the “scene “. Once the actual Story begins it was ok
Definitely not as good as the first one

Excellent!

The writing and narration are top notch. It kind of reminds the reader of recent events minus the lethality of the virus.

Almost prophetic!

Great listen. Worth the time. Main character is not always the main focus of the book & that's a good thing. Supporting characters play big roles!
