Aprašymas

FEVER A novel by Dan Churach FEVER weaves a tale of tension and intrigue triggered by several terrorist events that befall Australia. Asha Sharma, a Global News Network journalist working in America, returns home to Fremantle on an assignment investigating a rash of mutated microorganisms appearing globally. From the zombie microbes thawing in the melting permafrost of the Arctic to new strains of Ebola virus spreading into Thailand and Malaysia, was this Mother Earth's attempt to resist the ecological onslaught of humanity? Asha finds herself in the middle of the 'news story of the century' working with an eclectic group of ASIO agents, police detectives, medical doctors, university academics and a team of marine biologists in Queensland, Victoria and Western Australia. FEVER opens with an explosion aboard the research vessel Reef Explorer, and ASIO Agent Clint Navarro quickly ties that blast to an earlier bombing that destroyed an MP's office in Gladstone. Days later, another terrorist incident sees a 'murder-by-Ebola' scheme carried out in Melbourne unleashing the first active case of Ebola Virus Disease in Australia. Forensic investigators quickly identify the murder weapon as a synthetic version of the deadly virus produced in Melbourne laboratories. Does this portend more extremist activities to come? From America, through Southeast Asia and across Australia, FEVER is a thriller that unravels through a series of twists and turns in fast-paced action whodunit keeping the reader guessing until the very last page.
