Final Epidemic

Synopsis:

This is how the world ends...

An invisible killer has returned. The last time it raged, upward of forty million died-- in a matter of months.

Now it is back, released to prey on an unsuspecting, unprotected world.

This time, nothing can stop it.

----

The first case appears on a flawless spring morning, initially diagnosed as a common cold, or perhaps a mild flu.

Then the deaths begin.

There is no known cure, no vaccine-- and the only antidote could itself kill millions.

FINAL EPIDEMIC has begun...

-------

New York and Florida are quarantined. International travel is halted. A Japanese doomsday cult commits mass suicide, its final mission accomplished.

Beck Casey, a former expert on biological warfare who is haunted by the demons of his own horrific experiences.

But Casey's potential allies to save the future are the worst enemies from his past...
