Description
When a tsunami devastates the coast of Southern California, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) establishes a camp to house the tens of thousands of people displaced by the disaster, and the Army is brought in to provide medical services.
Dr. Mallory Hayes is dispatched to the camp by the CDC to prevent the potential spread of disease from contaminated water. What she discovers is far worse than anything she could have imagined - an accelerated HIV-like virus, and a common, everyday microbe, that are proving to be unfailingly deadly.
A tense, high-concept medical thriller meant to appeal to fans of Richard Preston, Terry Hayes and Michael Crichton.

A gripping medical thriller that will leave readers on the edge of their seats.
After a devastating tsunami hits Southern California, Dr. Mallory Hayes is dispatched to a FEMA camp to prevent the spread of disease from contaminated water. But what she finds there is far worse than she could have ever imagined - an HIV-like virus and a common microbe that are deadly and spreading fast. The tension is high throughout the book, and I appreciated how the author balanced the medical and scientific aspects of the story with the human drama.
