Description
When a series of attacks on animal researchers leave several people dead, the government--including the president--issues an immediate ban on animal testing. And thats when the real trouble begins. In a thrill a minute read, author Paul McKellips poses a frightening "what if" scenario that will leave the human race on the brink of certain disaster. When a series of attacks on animal researchers leave several people dead, the government--including the President--issues an immediate ban on animal testing. And thats when the real trouble begins...At the heart of the action are two government agents, the dashing Commander "Camp" Campbell, a man as decorated for his bravery in Iraq as for his own self-professed charm. Lieutenant Colonel Leslie Raines is the more practical of the two, a woman defined by her dedication to rules. Camp has returned to the States, newly reassigned to a government-funded test site. When the ban on animals comes down, Camp pulls a restless act by making off with two hundred rats...and winds up in deep trouble. He is immediately banished for a year, his superiors hoping the ramifications of his stunt will have worn off by then. Raines, uncharacteristically covering for him, finds herself joining him. But where they are headed only increases the risk--both to themselves, to the scientist whose very existence is threatened...and the future of the human race. Who is really behind the ban on animal testing? And why? Could a deadly, dangerous fanatical group be behind the threat of a new vein of plague sweeping across the country...or worse, could it be someone people have come to trust?
