FROM THE MILES FRANKLIN WINNING AUTHOR OF CHAI TIME AT THE CINNAMON GARDENS
Twenty years ago an Ebola epidemic brought the world to the edge of oblivion.
The West won the war, the East was isolated behind a wall, and a vaccine against Ebola was developed. Peace prevailed.
Now Agent Noah Williams is being sent over the barrier to investigate a rogue scientist who risks releasing another plague. But why would a once-respected academic threaten the enforced vaccination program that ensures humans are no longer an endangered species?
Hunting for answers amid shootouts, espionage and murder, Noah will have to confront a fundamental question:
In the fight for survival, can our humanity survive too?
