Review:
The dramatic and chilling story of an Ebola virus outbreak in a surburban Washington, D.C. laboratory, with descriptions of frightening historical epidemics of rare and lethal viruses. More hair-raising than anything Hollywood could think of, because it's all true.
From the Publisher:
"One of the most horrifying things I've ever read. What a remarkable piece of work."
--Stephen King
--Stephen King
"Popular science writing at its best and the year's most infectious page-turner."
--People
"A top-drawer horror story...the best literary roller coaster of the fall."
