An anonymous and often criminal arena that exists in the secret, far reaches of the web, some use it to manage Bitcoins, pirate movies and music, or traffic in drugs and stolen goods. And now an ancient darkness is gathering there as well. These demons are threatening to spread virally into the real world unless they can be stopped by members of a ragtag crew.

A hyper-fast quantum computer is the digital equivalent of a nuclear bomb: whoever possesses one will be able to shred any encryption in existence, effectively owning the digital world. The question is: Who will build it first, the United States or China? The latest of David Ignatius' timely, sharp-eyed espionage novels follows CIA agent Harris Chang into a quantum research lab compromised by a suspected Chinese informant. The breach provokes a mole hunt that is obsessive, destructive, and - above all - uncertain.

If Indiana Jones lived in the X-Files era, he might bear at least a passing resemblance to Nolan Moore - a rogue archaeologist hosting a documentary series derisively dismissed by the "real" experts, but beloved by conspiracy theorists. Nolan sets out to retrace the steps of an explorer from 1909 who claimed to have discovered a mysterious cavern high up in the ancient rock of the Grand Canyon. And, for once, he may have actually found what he seeks. Then the trip takes a nasty turn, and the cave begins turning against them in mysterious ways.

Publisher's Summary

A mysterious disorder threatens to destroy the world in this high-concept thriller from Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times reporter Matt Richtel, which combines medical science, cutting-edge technology, and breathtaking suspense in the vein of Michael Crichton.

An airplane lands at a desolate airport in a remote Colorado ski town. Onboard, Dr. Lyle Martin, a world-class infectious disease specialist, is brusquely awakened to shocking news: Everyone not on the plane appears to be dead. A lethal new kind of virus may have surfaced, threatening our survival, and now Martin - one of the most sought after virologists on the planet until his career took a precipitous slide - is at the center of the investigation.

The symptoms are the most confounding the experienced doctor has ever seen. Is it the work of terrorists? A biological attack? A natural occurrence? As word of the deadly sickness spreads, panic leads to violence and chaos. Armed and terrified partisans and patriots, stoked by technology and social media, have dug in, unknowingly creating fertile ground for the deadly syndrome Dr. Martin has begun to identify.

As the globe begins to unravel and paranoia and hatred take hold, Martin is forced to face a question as terrifying as this syndrome itself: Is the world better left unsaved?

Moving at a breakneck pace from the labs of the Centers for Disease Control to the secret campus of Google X to the marble halls of the Capitol, Dead on Arrival is a brilliantly imaginative high-concept thriller that draws on Matt Richtel's years of science and technology reporting for the New York Times and establishes him as one of the premier technological thriller writers working today.

Was this actually written by an adult?

I can’t decide what it is about this book... the fact I found the story ridiculous and the dialogue completely inane considering the circumstances, or that the narrator sounds like he is reading a Dr Seus book. Sadly, Jonathan Yen’s reading and narration of this book makes me think that I am listening to “Horton Hears a Who”. And even more interesting is that I have no children and have never read or listened to “Horton Hears a Who”... It just keeps going through my head. If I did however, I imagine this is exactly what it would sound like. I actually fell asleep for an hour while listening with my earbuds in and the story had not moved forward at all. I have never written a book and I don’t pretend I have the talent to ever do so, but I feel this book lacked the basics. I actually PURCHASED this for over $19.00! I should have listened to the other reviewers. I doubt if I will finish this. Maybe another narrator would have made it more interesting?

i suppose it's okay...

yeah... it's okay... I was just expecting... more, I guess. of course, i realize that it MAY just be me, and NOT the book
this sobriety-thing is just awful, and I don't recommend it... for anyone... well, except for brain surgeons... Air Traffic Controllers... oh... and Proctologists.
Throughout the book... I kept feeling this crescendo building, and building, and building... but for me, there was just no pay-off for the time invested. But... like I said... I was fairly sober, too.
Anyway- if I had it to do over... I wouldn't.

The basic premise of this novel is absurd!

The basic premise of this book is absurd and it goes on way too long. Dragging and dragging the story out for no apparent reason. Characters not very engaging or authentic. Hence, I do not recommend it. I read Matt Richtel’s book A Deadly Wandering and thought it excellent. So this was very disappointing.
