When ex-Navy SEAL Nick Foley travels to China to find purpose and escape the demons of his past, he instead stumbles into a conspiracy his Special Forces training never prepared him for. A mysterious and deadly outbreak ravages a remote area of western China, and Nick finds himself the lead suspect in a bioterrorism investigation being conducted by China's elite Snow Leopard counter-terrorism unit. To clear his name and avoid prosecution, he must team up with beautiful Chinese CDC microbiologist Dr. Dazhong "Dash" Chen to find who is really behind the attack. As their investigation proceeds, their budding friendship is tested by nationalistic loyalties and suspicion. In a race against time, Nick and Dash must risk everything to stop a mad man before he unleashes the world's next super-weapon in Beijing.

Nick Foley, a twenty-eight year old ex- combat medic Navy Seal, is doing volunteer work under the direction of a NGO in Kashi China. He is digging a ditch when one of the local Uyghur workers, Batur, suddenly falls. Barely alive when Nick examines him/An awful, wet, snoring sound came from his mouth but then abruptly stopped. Batur had practically transformed right before their eyes-abdominal pain, fever, and bleeding from the eyes.So begins this biological thriller set in modern day China. The authors certainly know their territory in the medical fields and military hardware; as both were U.S Navy veterans, a combat surgeon and nuclear submarine officer. The writing is paced to turn the pages fast with suspense and pleasure.The set-up is superb drawing on characters within the hierarchy of the appropriate departmental ministries to flush-out an atmosphere of authentic realism that credits the reader with intelligence/...your CDC team will be part of a multidiscipline, multiministry, Quick Reaction Task Force. You will be traveling with the Snow Leopard Counterterrorism Unit's Ninth Squadron as well as the PLA's NBC Regiment.The high level political intrigues are also realistic; in that they show ministries in-fighting, vying for control and more power[sadly replete in most countries of this 21st century]. For example, the mission completely changes early on to the amazement of many who thought they were in a joint operation//It was a letter issued from the office of the Central National Security Commission. The joint task force had been officially reclassified.The novel notches-up the complexity of whose who. Nick Foley calmly posses early on, in his interrogation, Cui Bono?The characters are well drawn and the action sequences are slammingly real.
