But when he leaves the Wall Street rat race hoping to slow down his life in San Diego, he finds that a calm and peaceful existence is just not in the cards. While researching a local biotechnology firm that has just exploded into flames, Tim begins to untangle a lethal web of deceit. A frightening, secret triumvirate of mass murder intricately combines a high-finance broker, a Middle-Eastern terrorist organization, and a dying biotechnology firm willing to do anything to keep afloat.How far will this alliance go? Tim soon finds out that a bug that \"makes AIDS look like a hangnail\" might only be the beginning. He teams up with Betsy O'Brien, his spunky and beautiful coworker; Joe Mack, his wheelchair-bound brother who’s a former DEA agent; and Detective Bob Moore, an aging but tenacious cop in charge of leading the formal, but furtive, investigation.Together, they devise a plan to stop the release of the mutated virus—a plan that brings the lives of Tim, his loved ones, and the rest of the country down to the bare wire.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bancroft Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47060333265136,"sku":"9781890862350","price":23.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781890862350_p0.jpg?v=1763608963","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781890862350","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
