Deception: Deception: An Origins Unknown Novella

During a scientific expedition into the Brazilian rainforest to study indigenous plants, diagnostician Rosie McKenna faces her most challenging medical mystery. A bizarre skin condition is spreading through Burton Pharmaceuticals' team members. A condition she can't diagnose.

As she struggles to save the patients inside a top-secret field hospital, she soon learns the scientific expedition is an orchestrated cover concealing something far more sinister than hungry jaguars prowling the dwindling jungle. Something, that if allowed to move beyond the forest and scorched and crater riddled earth-could possibly change the evolution of mankind.

Isolated and frightened, she doesn't know whom to trust. Trevor, the career-driven botanist who wants to be more than just friends? Or Romas, the magnetic security expert who causes her to question her own sanity?
