A US Navy ship goes off-course and runs aground on a protected coral reef.
An all-electric vehicle goes off-course, killing a powerful Washington insider.
Are these events related? And what do they have to do with the hunt for a deadly pathogen?
In 2022, the Pentagon publicly acknowledged that they were aware of forty-six biolabs operating in Ukraine—each one working to develop deadly biological warfare pathogens. When Russia invaded Ukraine, the question was, what happened to those labs? And more importantly, what happened to the deadly infectious agents stored in each lab?
Thriller author M.H. Sargent takes this topic and spins it into a compelling page-turner centered on a rogue Ukrainian scientist who is one step ahead of everyone else when Russia invades his country. He has already fled to Europe with his wife and young daughter. All fine and good.
Except for the fact that he has left Ukraine with a potentially fatal gain-of-function viral recipe in his head. A formula that he is willing to sell to the highest bidder.
To stop the transfer of the deadly pathogen, FROG, a covert intelligence agency, steps into the breach. Their mission is simple—assassinate the rogue scientist and his deadly concoction dies with him.
However, things soon go sideways when the scientist’s little girl is kidnapped and FROG’s elite team of operatives find themselves pitted against various lethal enemies willing to do anything to obtain the deadly formula for their own diabolical gain.
And humanity’s loss.
Genre: Thriller
