Kevin died at thirty-five, carrying a framework that could have changed the world. He died too young, too exhausted, and far too alone, leaving behind a son who inherited not just the vision, but the bill.

Twenty years later, Enzy stands where his father once stood, staring into a system that looks fine from a distance and terrifying up close. Antibiotic-resistant infections are spreading through NEMO’s 500 million participants. Without intervention, millions will die. Naturally, that’s a terrible plan.

The framework exists.
The funding exists.
The need is real.

What doesn’t exist is the one thing Enzy can no longer pretend he can do without: help.

To stop the coming catastrophe, Enzy must assemble the impossible: an epidemiologist from Nairobi, a pharmacologist from Singapore, an infectious disease specialist from the Global Health Org, a public health policy expert from Dubai, and a clinical geneticist from Mumbai. Together, they may build what one brilliant mind never could.

But the deeper they go, the stranger and more dangerous the truth becomes.

Bacteria evolve faster than policy. Pharma has walked away from the future of antibiotics. Governments fear systems they can’t control. Cultural resistance can wreck the best medical solution. And somewhere in the shadows, someone is waiting to turn failure into a weapon.

As the body count rises and the stakes climb to civilization-scale, Enzy is forced to confront the legacy of the man before him and the mistake that nearly consumed them both.

Because saving millions is hard.

Doing it without burning out, breaking down, or becoming your father?

That’s the real emergency.

A high-stakes science-fiction medical conspiracy thriller about a man racing to stop a global catastrophe before it begins, while the system, and someone inside it, fight to make sure he fails.

Store Description

We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places.

We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book.
